Cooling down your laptop.

Sitting on a train, plane or even infront of your TV with your laptop resting carefully on your lap, desk or even the coffee table, you can feel the heat starting to escape from it. You need to cool it down but work is far more important at that moment and if it blows..oh well!

There is a solution to this, as I have found.

An auxiliary cooler for laptop computers has been designed to prevent them from overheating, particularly in cramped conditions where there is inadequate natural cooling. The fan assembly also forms an ergonomic stand for the laptop that slants the keyboard at 6º and therefore produces less wrist strain.

These coolers are suitable for all laptops from 10.4 to 15 inches. The cooler is connected to the laptop via a simple adapter and is powered from the laptop USB port.  Two fans, which are controlled by a three-way switch providing on/off and a choice of speeds, force air into the cooling ducts of the laptop.  Low speed is 2,500 rev/min and provides airflow of 3.26 litres/sec (6.9CFM) while the high-speed mode of 3,400 rev/min provides 4.34 litres/sec  (9.2CFM).  Power consumption is only 2W and an adaptor is available for mains operation.

At last, a solution to that warm feeling.
