The remote control sample came in

There was a run of bad ones at one time it seems, based on a wide survey of owners over a couple of years. I believe they are good to be used again for a while now.

As @MicroAudio posted, even if you left the 3ch NCx500 in idle indefinitely, it does not get that hot. In fact when I tested one of the rack builds in my own setup, the AC Infinity Aircom would never come on while sitting idle, even though the thermal probe was placed right next to the SMPS and...
