havit HV-F2056 15 6-17 Laptop Cooler Cooling Pad - Slim Portable USB Powered 3 Fans Black Blue

I’m running a year and a half old Hewlett Packard Envy laptop with a 17” IPS touch screen, 16 GB of memory and a TB SDD. My OS is Windows 11 home, and I’ve made no adjustments in BIOS to fan control. I typically have iTunes, Photoshop and Microsoft Excel open at the same time, along with several tabs from Google Chrome. Though I’d place my laptop on a surface conducive to air flow, this thing would occasionally get very hot, especially when running Windows updates. I’d regularly unplug the system, let it cool, and then blow out the intake vents with compressed air. That didn’t help, and I’m not about to remove the back of the laptop to clean it further. Since I don’t feel like dropping $1,400 on another new computer, and I clearly needed to get the core temperature of my system down, it became obvious that I needed a laptop cooler. This is the first model I have tried, and it works like a charm. It’s a keeper. I’ve been running my system for about five hours straight tonight, doing a good amount of work that keeps my CPU busy, including ripping CDs in iTunes. And the laptop still feels the same as it did before I turned it on: cool to the touch, and the I haven’t heard the laptop’s system fan kick in once. Note: I will be working in Pro Tools within the next week, software that will be more demanding on my system resources. Should the cooler have any issues maintaining core temperature with the higher demands on my CPU, I’ll update my review. But I don’t foresee this happening. This thing is great. It’s lightweight, yet pretty solidly constructed. Though it does have two adjustable legs in the back to place the laptop at a more ergonomic angle, I don’t use them, though I did these them. My computer didn’t slide around at all. The face of the cooler “grips” the bottom, so to speak,, so it stays in place. And it is very quiet. I completely forget that it’s running. It takes the blue light reflecting off of something to remind me that the cooler is there. Another positive is that it’s very comfortable on my lap wearing shorts. There are no edges pressing into my legs, and I’m no longer sweating because of the heat being thrown from my system. The cooler has the on/off switch, led power indicator, and two USB ports on the back. A USB type A connector cord is included, which is just over 21” from the bottom of one dongle to the bottom of the other. I have USB super speed type “A” ports on either side of my laptop, so it’s easy to plug in. No other work is required to set it up. Simply put your laptop or other electronic device on top of it, connect the USB line from the cooler to the hardware, and the fans are up and running, and the colored lights are on. I got a 20% off coupon, so with tax, the unit cost $24.24. I placed my order late at night Thursday, and it was delivered before 6 am Friday morning. A great product, and great service. Even if you pay the full list price, which will come to around $30 with tax, it’s money well spent. It will extend the life of your laptop. Read more

I've had this cooling pad for around 6 months now. Here are my thoughts, The cooling pad itself seems to be of decent quality. The box includes two rubber pads that you have to stick onto the pad surface to help prevent your laptop from sliding. Unfortunately, the perforated aluminum face causes these pads to slide out of position over time. A better design would have the pads pre-installed. I opted for the blue color. I like the look, but there's no option to change colors or even turn off the light, which may become distracting while using at night. The fans seem to be of good quality. They spin fast enough to effectively cool my laptop while gaming, but slow enough to be pretty quiet. It would've been nice if this pad had the ability to adjust the fan speed, but for what it's worth, I think it's been set just right for my use case. On the back of the pad, there is one USB to power the cooling pad and another USB for passthrough. I haven't yet tried this for data transfer, but I can imagine it's not ideal. The included cable is, at least in my case, way too long, since my laptop has a port directly above where the cooling pad connector sits. For some people, this may be helpful, but you may want to consider getting a short cable. The pad is easy to use, lightweight and fairly comfortable in my lap during long sessions. The pad also includes two risers at the bottom for adjustment, which may come in handy for some. Overall, when you consider the excellent cooling capability, the lightweight construction, and then the price, it's honestly a good value. It's missing some features that you may find on more premium cooling pads, but it still has everything you need to keep your laptop from turning into an oven and that's good enough for me. Read more

Seems to do the job very well. It's not loud and not quiet. Just sounds like my laptop fan running as usual. It does help cool the laptop though. The underneath of my laptop isn't as hot as it normally is. I still notice though my laptop fan running so I guess it doesn't cool it down with all I use my laptop for. I'm sure it is still better than not having extra air helping my laptop. What can I say, I use my laptop for big programs. Would I buy this item again? Of course! I still like how the bottom of my laptop isn't as hot. It comes with a USB-A on both ends of the cord. The cord is approx: 1 foot long. I plug it into the back of my laptop. Works like a charm. Not sure it if will help older laptops. Depends on where the air vents are on the laptop. There is a small button on cooling pad (on the back) allowing user to turn on or off as needed. I just keep it on until I'm turning laptop off. Read more
