Construction note:
Your Ninja-2 is designed to operate in ambient temperatures up to
40°C/105°F. It features a fanless design which dissipates internal heat
through the aluminium chassis.
If you wish to extend the temperature of operation in high temperature
conditions, you can choose an SSD drive, and set the TFT brightness to
a minimum.
The top and bottom aluminium surfaces next to the tripod screws
are the heat sinks. Under warm or extended operating conditions, these
surfaces may get hot to the touch. This is normal part of the design, and
shows that your Ninja-2 is dissipating heat successfully.
Do not be alarmed if the top and bottom surfaces seem hot to touch.
This is normal part of the design, and shows that your Ninja-2 is
dissipating heat successfully.
SSD/HDD usage:
With spinning drives, you need to be careful in handling when recording.
The drives will generally stand light/medium occasional bumps without
problems, and the Ninja-2 has an anti-shock buffer. However, spinning
drives are not suitable for use in high vibration or movement environments,
for example if the Ninja-2 is strapped to the side of a motor bike.
With spinning hard drives, use a new drive, or one that has very little usage.
Do not use old drives. Do not use drives that have been dropped.
On all drives, when handling, keep fingers away from the SATA connector
at all times, as static electricity can damage the electronics inside.
