Only Gates knows all the answers (don't know if it's a good thing, though)...

There is always a chance of overheating, but the Elite uses a new heat dispersion method I think which is supposed to really lower the odds. Nothing is guaranteed...it is hardware, after all!

I just bought one that was manufactured in July and I don't really notice the sound at all. I do sit about 8 feet away though.

I know this has been asked many times, and I'm sorry for repeating it, but where do you look to find out when the unit was produced? Thanks.
