Default Wall wart gets HOT

I just purchased an on-board glow driver from JHM Aeroengineering and can readily recommend this unit to anyone wanting on-board glow. The problem is that the MPI wallwart (1.2V, 500MA) gets very HOT during use. I don't mean real warm, I mean can't hold it in your hand very long HOT. This seems a bit abnormal to me but it charged the battery to 1.46 volts. Is this fully charged? Is the heat normal? I've never seen a 50ma wallwart do this so I'm a little worried.

Thanks,
IronZ
