J'excuse, mais c'est contradicting physics in sentence 2. Insulting "insulating" keeps the heat in.

Oui/yes you are correct I meant insulate so that you don't feel the heat on your hand. As for the electronic I guess they would fry or have an automated shut off. I have a laptop that sit on a cooling portable table because the heat is uncomfortable on my lap. Didn't put a lot of thought writing this down this is just chit chat it's relative "insulating". Good pick up on the physics .
