T2i Overheating Lamp... How long do I leave the camera off?

I experienced my first overheating lamp indicator today and was wondering... How long should I leave the camera off before safely shooting again? As soon as I got the indicator, I shut off my camera immediately and turned it back on after a minute. The lamp didn't show up and I was able to record for quite awhile. Would it be a better idea to wait atleast 10 minutes before turning it back on?

Sorry for the noob question, i'm always paranoid over my gear.
 
It's most likely your card not your camera, you should try to shoot on 8gb cards, because they are less vunerable to over heat.
