Targus - Dual Fan Chill Mat Cooling System - Black

It Works very good. I was concerned about my Laptop getting hot while I work with it, but now no any more. The black color of this item and the gray color of my laptop look stunning! It works only with a USB connection, then no useful for MacBooks that was my initial purpose. But I am happy using it with my Dell Laptop.

The product is durable and has been working great.

I AM COMPLETELY SATISFIED WITH THIS PRODUCT!! THANKS TO BEST BUY..

Very good if intake fans are on bottom of laptop like mines. Works 100% better if left on top of an air condition vent or cooling system as I actually have the luxury that many won’t. Pretty quiet….only suggestion would be better fans, more smaller fans, or higher fan speed as noise is not even 15% as loud as my laptop fans.

Pros: Laptop cooler is quiet, lightweight, durable, and has nice design. It is able to fit 15 inch or smaller laptop nicely. It is composed of black plastic shell. two fans and a plug in usb cable. You can place the laptop cooler on you lap, if you desire. The cooler has four fixed feet that elevate the base by 1/4 of an inch allowing air to flow from the bottom of the cooler through the fans and grill to the bottom of the laptop. There is an ample amount of air flowing from the cooling pad, to cool your laptop, air from the cooler up to the bottom of the laptop's ventalation. The cooling pad air blows upwards. The cooler is small and light enough to travel with L13 1/4" X W 9 1/2".X H 1" It is affordable. I got mine on sale. Cons The usb cable is short at 18 inches. It has no on/off switch and no indicator light. The two fans are fixed. You cannot re postion the fans to align to the vents under the laptop. The fan speed is not adjustable. There is no place to store the cable in the cooler base. There is no storage bag to carry the cooler. Height is not adjustable and unable to change the angle of the cooler.

I read reviews of others. I’m glad I got this one. The hum of the fans is barely noticeable. It’s helped with my video editing. My system doesn’t heat up like it used to. Good to go.

For $34.99, with taxes $44.61 It's a little high for what it's worth, but it does it's job quite well, using a thin and light laptop with a relatively capable CPU, normally it would run at 60C idle, now at 48C, Which is quite a significant change, and runs very quietly. But this product should have really been more like $30, maybe $25 at the lowest? I'd still would have bought this at $30 at least, it's mini usb, which is a bummer, but it does at least come with a cable, and it's easier plug in then if it was micro usb, and the port would probably last longer. Ideally it should have been USB C, but considering this unit was still made at least 7 years ago, judging from the oldest reviews, and is still selling to this day, is quite a testament on how effective and, in a way, more durable, but simple, there is not even an on or off switch, so I just connect it to a spare battery pack I had lying around. Will this last a couple years, probably, maybe even more if taken care of. Overall, it's simple, made of decent hard plastic, but just a little overpriced.

My Microsoft Surface was constantly overheating, particularly when I had to lay it flat to use the drawing mode. The Chill Mat completely solved the problem, I now have a cool running machine. I am an online instructor so this Chill Matt really saved the day.
