It quickly becomes hot to the touch and the battery drains at phenomenal speed. Leave the Fire, and it stops. Even watching YouTube videos on it doesn’t do that. What the heck?

I have also noticed on my MacBook Pro; when I open the Fire in Safari, my energy impact goes up 20-50 times. If I disconnect Fire; back to normal. Took me a while to understand why my 10 hour battery was going down in an hour.
Something weird going on??

I have the same issue with my Mac Book Pro, the power requirements seem to be much greater than just a short time ago.

If you look at your Activity Monitor; you can see the change in Safari energy use by disconnecting the Fire; mine goes from about 120 to 4 or less

I'm going to guess that your processor is working overtime to handle all the ads and crud.

Just checked my desk 'pooter and even with the 'Fire up, it is using only 1% of the processor capacity. Don't want to find out what it takes with uBlock Origin turned off!

Hawk, I was joking with you earlier but my Apple I phone goes down faster here at The Campfire also but no heat problems.

No other websites do this.

Apple is from Satan. It should run hot.


Broncos are officially the worst team in the nation this year.
