Meaning of 持てない in 充電中は持てないほど暑くなるんだけど


Someone was talking about the properties of a charger But i don't understand
the meaning of 持てない in:

> 充電中は持てないほど暑くなるんだけど




This is just the "potential form" ([可能形]{か・のう・けい}) of 持つ. I means "can't
hold". So your sentence means

> While charging, it will become hot enough that you can't hold it.
