Why does the Hypershell Exoskeleton motor generate heat?Updated a month ago

The motor is a mechanical structural device that produces power to assist movement. Like any powered device, it generates some heat when operating.

Is it normal for the motor to feel warm?

Yes, it is normal for the motor to feel warm during use. However, if it becomes excessively hot, you should take some precautions.

How can I prevent the motor from overheating?

To avoid excessive heat buildup:

• Keep some space between the motor and your body. A finger’s distance is recommended to prevent heat accumulation.
• Take breaks if you feel the motor getting too hot.

What should I do if the motor gets too hot?

If the motor temperature feels too high:

1. Check your firmware version – update to firmware 1.4.2 if you haven’t already.
2. Enable Overheat Protection – in the Hypershell+ app, turn on the Overheat Protection Control function. This helps regulate the motor’s temperature automatically.
