  Not completely accurate. Most modern systems support asynchronous dual channel. Providing dual channel operation up to the smaller RAM capacity with the remaining RAM running in single-channel. Also “computers aren’t designed or meant to be operated that way” is a fabrication - they operate just fine, just with reduced performance. In RAM starved situations it’s still better to have single-channel than nothing at all.

  Citation needed - but I suppose you could say the same about my claim.

  I’d love to test this properly with an infrared thermometer but I don’t have one. All I have is an anecdote that I’ve been charging my OLED in it’s case since release and have never had an issue - not zipped up given the wire, just the lid flipped over on top.

  I guess either way the BMS would prevent any real damage from occurring, which is why I say it’s a non-issue.

  I can understand the concern. But a SD at full load would run significantly hotter, even with fan exhaust, than a powered-off SD charging in an enclosed case. It’s a non-issue.
