Wiim Ultra getting hot and power draw / stand-by

I did not know. Thank you

Standby seems to have two stages. For the first few minutes tmp102 still reads a temperature but when the power drops from 5W to 3W it reads -998. I figured the tmp102 loses power when the amplifier stage turns off.

I see.
Then it is a bit odd that Amp Ultra and Amp Pro always display temperatures

If you check the power consumption of the Ultra and the Pro do they appear to have two stages of standby? Maybe the power to the tmp102 is taken from a different place on the newer amps. Remember when the original Amp first came out the power consumption on standby was much higher.

Strange that it isn't available for the Ultra. Isn't there a status page at all?

Yes, there is the usual type of status page, but no temperatures are given.

Yes, I noticed that behaviour earlier.
