Here is my experience after 1 month of using this product: EFFICIENCY. The efficiency is amazing. When playing heavy games with ray tracing and such, my Predator Helios 300's "system temperature" dropped from 85-87C to 63-65C. This is the temperature in the laptop! To say these results are amazing would be an understatement. For example, the image shows the temperature set to Ultra & High with ray tracing set to High during the video game Control. The internal notebook coolers are in silent "automatic" mode. With the Mistral Cooling Pad set to maximum speed (mode #3), Forza Horizon 4 delivers almost the same great temperature results. The system temperature is >20 degrees Celsius lower than without the Mistral Cooling Pad. DESIGN. Very thoughtful and beautiful design. The bottom of the pillow is flat. Finally you can place your laptop on your lap and be comfortable without blocking airflow. The rear deflectors are also VERY USEFUL (great KLIM idea). Oh, and the RGB lighting is gorgeous, by the way. QUALITY. Very well done. Solid, rigid, non-bending. Doesn't feel cheap at all. Feels/looks expensive. If the product is really able to work for more than 5 years without failure (as the 5-year warranty "suggests"), then it's just great. NOISE. Mistral turboprops are still significantly LESS loud at max speed than your laptop's internal coolers at max speed! Great job Klim! POWER CONSUMPTION. This will drain your laptop's battery pretty badly if you're playing video games and your cooling pad's speed is on modes #2 and #3, even when plugged into an outlet. HOWEVER, it will probably take you around 24 hours of continuous gaming to completely drain it to zero. Idle and mode #1 doesn't drain the battery at all (and mode #1 already offers very good cooling, so you might not even need to use modes #2 or #3 to play). On the whole, Mistral's high efficiency is worth it. RESULT. If you have a powerful $1,200 gaming laptop, you'd better make sure it doesn't overheat without proper additional cooling. The Mistral Cooling Pad from KLIM is a real gem. Worth every penny. You will like it. 5 out of 5
