ThermaPAK's patented HeatShift® Technology uses a very simple physical concept to cool. On contact, the natural crystals inside our cooling pads draw heat away from the bottom of your laptop and into the pad. As the crystals warm up they begin to turn into a gel and then liquefy, wicking away the heat from the laptop into the pad. This process insulates you and your work surface from harmful heat. When the pad cools or the laptop is not in use, the liquid returns to solid crystals and the pad is ready to repeat the cooling process, again and again; with no refrigeration necessary. It's much like ice melting into water and then refreezing back into ice again.
HeatShift® works! Independent lab results confirm that HeatShift® pads reduce laptop temperatures by up to 10° F. A 10° drop is significant for a laptop since the lower the temperature the better your laptop's CPU performance. A cooler laptop means lower and quieter laptop fan speeds, and promotes longer battery life, all while providing you a cooler and more comfortable laptop to use, anywhere.
ThermaPAK's patented HeatShift® Cooling Pads are the most advanced, convenient, and stylish solution to protect against laptop heat.
The HeatShift® Cooling Pads begin immediately to protect you and your work surfaces from damaging heat. Better yet, it does it efficiently and more quietly than noisy, dusty, fan-based, USB-powered cooling devices...all at a very affordable price.
HeatShift® Cooling Pads provide the ideal cooling technology for the mobile worker, student, or traveler.

I cannot recommend this item unless you never run your laptop for longer than 3-4 hours. After that, the "crystals" soften as described, but that is where the accuracy of the manufacturer's description ends. It does not continue to cool once it becomes warm itself, no matter what they say. It's a great-sounding idea that doesn't live up to its hype.
I can definitely recommend the Belkin F5L001 Laptop Cooling Stand. It is a USB device, but I find the fan to be very quiet, the design intelligent, and the cooling effective.
When it is cold you can bend it and feel & hear the solid crystals crunching inside. As the pad heats up it becomes more pliable as the crystals start turning to liquid. It works, but as others have mentioned prolonged usage heats it to the point of diminishing returns. I'm considering purchasing a second pad for long work sessions. An example would be a 2 hr length movie ... by the end of the movie the pad will be warm and a bit uncomfortable if it is sitting in your lap but, for the majority of that time it works well.
For all the other advantages this cooling pad offers (0 power & total silence), I feel comfortable recommending it.
First of all I use my laptop for gaming so my video card can hit over 200 fahrenheit and my duo processors can hit over 150 fahrenheit. With most fan based system they lowered my processors by 20-30 and my video card by 20. Still really hot, and that was using cooling plates with 1-3 fans I found they all worked about equally well.
With some of the fan based systems, I found them to be in poor quality and often difficult.
The first one I had, had one fan. It sucked up so much dirt and lint that it would humm and ding. The sound was dreadful when trying to do any type of work or watch movies. I had to clean it out by unscrewing all the screws and pull out all the hair and lint stuck in the fan. After awhile I just ended up banging on it to stop it from making noise after a few weeks and a lot of banging it stopped working.
The Second fan system I got had well two fans, I thought more fans more cooling power. It did the exact same as the first one. The design of this one was more the problem. It had I kid you not a 3 feet cord, that had to be plugged into both the computer and the system its self. I have no idea why I would need 3 feet of cord, unless I was cooling a laptop and plugging it into a desktop/laptop 3 feet away. It came unplugged from the system its self all the time and it also had a on/off switch on the cord that would constantly get turned off no idea how but it did. After 2 months of use it just one day died.
I have had few more and they all had issues such as these, none of them lasted or were put up with for more then a few months.
So when I saw this new cooling pad that uses no power no plug nothing at all I was thrilled. But alas it didn't preform as I hoped. It cools down my laptop at the same rate as the fan based systems. But with the ability to flex and bend it easy to travel with. I don't have to deal with another cord hanging off my laptop. While it isn't going to cool your laptop down so much you can overclock it, it helps with the daily use of the laptop. I prefer this cooling pad to all the fan based systems I have so far tried.
My computer was starting to really heat up while watching Netflix, for... Read more
I would buy it again.
