I have a Toshiba Satellite P205D-S8812 (I say it like this so i do not have to give specs just browse it here at Amazon.com), and it has some heating issues (but not big of an issue to me, and not to mention every laptop has them), but for me the laptop does job extremly good on what ever I throw at it. No matter video rendering, gaming or any other processor consuming task, and this little thing helped me out so much. But let’s be real, even if you have a desktop PC it will generate heat unless you place water cooling on it, not to mention room temperature you are in. This thing does what it says to a certain point, it does stop to disipate heat after 2-3 hours of continuous usage, but hey we are talking about chemicals here. There is no such thing out there like this one, so that is why it makes it different from conventional cooling pads for laptops. Easy to use, no noise, feels comfy on your lap or even better no power consumption. And also if you want to cool down your laptop for additional 2C just take out the battery let it run on adaptor (that way you save your battery from depletion). My laptop is on 24-7 and i just restart it at the end of the day (but when I travel it’s not off more than 24 hours). Also I own 4 desktop PC’s and have done every thing on them to make them cool but hey if you have a comp running for more than 4 hours and having 4 monitors, that also generate heat and a regular room temperature it will have some effect on your computers generating heat. Unless you own a rack or turn your room into a server room that has it’s own dedicated A/C units to make certain temperature, but for normal use this thing offers much more that it looks like. Would definitely recommend it to everyone who is traveling as much as I do. It’s not bulky and can be used even as a pad just for protecting your laptop from underneath.

So, im not bashing the product at all. It works well, dont have to plug it into anything and seems to cool for at least 4-6 hours (I dont stay on my laptop much longer than that).
It does slip off the pad, sometimes. If they had Velcro or something non-slip, it might be a little more appealing… but all and all, works great.

I’ve tried the USB powered ones, and I have to say I like this much better. Initially, it cools the laptop far better than the USB versions that I’ve tried, and there are no annoying cords.
I do agree with those who have posted that the effectiveness is somewhat diminished after using it for several hours though. However, for me it’s been as simple as removing the pad for a little bit, letting it cool, and replacing it beneath the laptop. Still less annoying than the USB ones, and less heat in the long run because it does a much better job at cooling in the first place.
