[QUOTE="vinyls, post: 808959, member: 83755"] I've found that with mine (the one that came with my macbook) gets really hot if I charge my macbook WHILE I use it. So I tried a different route, much like the one they suggest on the Apple website. Use the macbook freely (w/ out charger) and turn off when charge is needed. Turns out the charger does not get AS hot, still a little warm which is normal for anything plugged into a wall. Probably wouldn't hurt it if you were to occasionally charge while you use it, although I wouldn't make it a habit, seeing as not only does the charger get extremely hot... it also wears out your battery. Hope this helps! If not I'm sure any Tech at a local Apple store would know what to do! [/QUOTE]
