Is there a temperature sensor on Pine?

Thanks longsleep, your post is very very interesting. I did not think that 45°C could be a normal temperature

A heatsink greatly improves heat dissipation for normal short burst work loads or in bad thermal environments (eg. inside a case with no air flow). Without a fan, the heat sink will reach its maximum dissipation capability after a couple of minutes of constant load  (the exact time depends on the heat sink quality, ambient temperature and air flow).

So, do you think heatsink is a good buy?

So, if the micro-USB connector doesn't give the best power feed, what is the best setup? Is it better to use a battery constantly recharging via the Micro-USB?

Best option is power via the DC IN pins on the euler bus.
