TECKNET Cooling Pad 12-17 Inch Laptop Cooler with 3 Ultra Quiet Fans at 1200 rpm, Ergonomic Comfort Notebook Cooling Pad with 2 USB Ports, Lightweight Gaming Laptop Cooling Stand

Just bought a new gaming laptop and in order to keep it in good condition for as long as possible, I decided to invest in a cooling tray too. This one had good reviews and at the time of purchase, was £9.99, which seemed reasonable enough. I've been using it the last few days on my old laptop, which gets hot as balls in one corner, to the point that it's uncomfortable to the touch, and it's been a revelation! Pros: * The cooling tray keeps the computer so nice and cold that I would genuinely think it wasn't on. * It runs virtually silent (no noise noticeable after the computer is on because the computer itself is noisier). * It's attractive without being garish - the blue lights aren't obtrusive, which I appreciate. * It's nice and light without feeling flimsy. The little legs that pop out to raise the angle feel sturdy and the hinge is nice and stiff, they definitely can't slip down by themselves. * There are rubber strips on all four corners on the bottom and on the bottom of the pop out legs, to ensure the tray doesn't shift when placed on a surface. There are also two rubber strips on top, so the laptop stays in position even when angled. These are nice and big and grippy without obstructing air flow or sticking out too much. * The USB port means you don't have to sacrifice a peripheral to use this. Cons: * If you have a very heavy laptop or press down too hard, the metal can compress to hit the fan blades inside - the metal is full of holes to allow air flow, so it's not made to withstand very heavy loads. If you did this for long enough, I imagine you'd break it. I don't think you'd do this with any modern laptop without mishandling the product, though (I only realised because I shifted too suddenly with it on my lap and grabbed it too hard trying to stop the laptop sliding off). * There are two USB ports, but only one of them is an EXTRA USB port. One port is required to connect to the laptop, which is where the tray pulls its power. So you don't lose a port (I plugged my mouse into the tray and the tray into the laptop instead of plugging the mouse into the laptop), but you don't gain one either. Just to clarify that. Overall, it does exactly what it promises for a really reasonable price. I'd definitely recommend. To ensure its long life, I'd probably use it on a desk or on top of a lap tray rather than directly on your lap, but you can use it on your lap if needed. I tried both but it feels better on a lap tray, as the rubber feet can grip it so it feels safer than your legs.

It has 3 power fans idea for keeping the laptop cool. Also the whole cooling pad is not too bulky. Comes with two clips at the back to tilt the laptop if needed. Will update the review as times goes on.

Comprato per il mio laptop Acer da 15 pollici. La qualità complessiva della base di raffreddamento e buona. L'interruttore di accensione e spegnimento posteriore è un optional che può avere la sua utilità. Io per comodità lo lascio in posizione "on" (acceso). Di fianco all'interruttore sono presenti due prese USB, anche se quella "fruibile" è una solo, dato che l'altra viene usata per alinentare le ventole. Le luci a led non sono invasive, e con il portatile appoggiato sopra (il mio occupa l'intera superfice della base) non danno fastidio, anzi, possono servire per capire se le ventole sono in funzione. Per l'effettiva efficienza di raffreddamento, non saprei dire, dato che il mio laptop ha la griglia di estrazione della ventola interna posta lateralmente, e quindi le ventole della base agiscono sulla parte di appoggio (chiusa) del portatile. L'aria la smuovono, qualcosa faranno. In quanto alla rumorosità, ad essere pignoli, proprio silenziosa non è (parlimo comunque di tre ventole), ma è un rumore di fondo talmente lieve, che dopo un po' non si avverte più. Tirando le somme direi che per quello che costa (poco più di 16 euro) è un ottimo prodotto, con un rapporto qualità prezzo eccellente.

I only received this yesterday so these are my initial impressions: - next day delivery, well-packed. Box contains a short USB A to USB A cable - the pad has a bigger footprint than my 13" laptop, but all three fans fit below the laptop. The size means It's fine for home use (which is what I wanted) but I probably wouldn't travel with it. - there's one fan at the back and two at the front. My laptop's vent is at the back and that's where it's felt hot. So I've turned the pad round so that two fans are at the back. This means the 2 USB slots and on/off switch are the front not the back - actually easier to reach and use. It also means the optional feet are at the front not the back. That works fine for me, I don't want to use it as a raised stand so don't need to use the feet. - there is sufficient grip both between the pad on the table/desk, and also between the pad and the laptop. It feels safe. I would be happy to use it to carefully carry my laptop around the house. - I think it's quiet. I'm currently using a USB desk fan for my own use, due to the hot weather, and that small desk fan is much much louder than the cooling pad - It is definitely cooling my laptop. The laptop base is usually hot to the touch (probably needs cleaning) - it now hardly feels warm. - I have been unable to power the pad from my laptop. Windows 10 gave out constant error messages saying there was insufficient power. I had to reboot to stop the alerts, despite unplugging the pad. I am now powering the pad from an external USB charging bank. If others have the same problem you may find the supplied A to A cable isn't long enough. It's fine for me. - The blue lights are quite attractive - This was recommended by Techradar as a budget option, and I agree it offers good value. - Basically, after tweaking it a bit, I'm happy with my purchase.

My cooling pad broke so needed a replacement. Got it today, and because I use my laptop on my bed I put my cooling pad on its box since it's not Elevated enough, you can definitely feel the cold coming through the sides and coming at you, but it still cools the Laptop which is good. It isn't Ultra Quiet, it's small background noise which is nice but yeah not Ultra Quiet otherwise it'll be 5 Stars
