lemp9: Left side of system heats up when AC adapter is plugged in
The A/C barrel plug adapter for the lemp9 is on the left side of the system. When the adapter is plugged in the left side of the system gets warm, if not hot, to the touch.
At first I just thought it was the NVMe drive installed on the left side of the system, but then realized that the left third of the chassis as a whole gets warm.

Charging current was halved. System charges at 30W instead of the previous 60W and should not heat up as much while charging.
I have been noticing a similar issue, this issue was brought to my attention.
When the battery gets to about 80% charge the chassis gets noticeably warm with the barrel connector plugged in. According to the Vitals Temperature monitor my Lemur Pro starts sitting around 66C, and once the barrel connector is unplugged it will instantly drop down 10C.

Following https://github.com/system76/ec/issues/42#issuecomment-609114940, can the charging power be reduced further e.g. 20W? Is there a limit to which it can be reduced?
