Review on ๐Ÿ’ป HAVIT 5-Fan Laptop Cooling Pad for 14-17 Inch Laptops, Cooler Pad with LED Light, Dual USB 2.0 Ports, Adjustable Mount Stand - Blue by Donald Vargas

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Finally a cooling pad that can cool down my old Behemouth laptop!

I have a 17" Alienware M17x which is about 5 years old and gets so hot that after a few minutes you can't hold it on your lap and it keeps shutting down due to overheating I bought at least 5 cooling pads such as Thermaltake blocks and other well-reviewed items.None of them cooled my laptop, at most they kept it warm.And each of them had their own issues.like Thermaltake's unit had plastic legs that were relatively quick cracked and broke. I decided to try the Havit 5 fan unit here, which really surprised and pleased me. I'm typing on this laptop right now, sitting on the couch, and this huge old laptop was on all day. The laptop feels really good! I really like the side wheel that lets you adjust the fan speed, but even at the highest speeds it's very quiet (many cooling pads have fans that make an annoying whistle). Remove the pad from the surface it sits on (and they can be removed) and they seemed well designed and not prone to breakage. The bright red LEDs ALMOST put me off buying it as I often leave the laptop on. my bedside table in a dark room. But my laptop covers the headlights completely, so no problem with that. The ONLY shortcoming I have to point out is that a couple of small rubber pads glued to the underside of the pad

Pros
  • Cooling Pads and External Fans
Cons
  • Out of fashion
