the mpguino does well now so far in heat, just the arduino didn't

Mine has been installed since Saturday and has survived that many hot days. How long before yours started acting up? I assume I would have know something by now. I do keep a piece of paper on top of the unit to keep it out of direct sunlight. I doubt that helps much; it's more of a mental thing, lol.
