ChillCore RGB Laptop Cooling Pad, Laptop Fan Cooling Pad 9 Fans

My Dell Laptop core processors were normally running anywhere between 150 - 175 degrees Fahrenheit when I was gaming. I regularly used a dust vacuum to clean out the air flow grill on the bottom. Even so, a few times I had a "critical heat warning" pop up, which caused me to stop the game. So, I researched this ChillCore laptop cooling pad. A few reviewers mentioned the fragility of the plastic tab that supports the bottom of the laptop when the unit is raised. That concerned me, but in reading the other reviews that raved how it greatly lowered the temperature of their laptops, I decided to purchase it and see how well it worked. First, the unit was boxed well to safely protect it during shipment. When I opened the box and lifted the unit out I found out that it is very light and thin. It has an ability to be used laying flat, or raised to various levels using a metal support can fit into a series of slots. The unit is powered by the laptop using a fairly short cord, but was of adequate length to plug into the USB slot. One point though, when I opened the box I could not find any instructions. That may be because they forgot to insert a set, or they expected users to look up the instructions on-line. It was however fairly easy to figure out. Once set up, I monitored the temperature of the laptop through an app I had previously downloaded. Even when the laptop is pushed to the limit gaming, the temperatures of the various core processors only rose to a range of 135 - 145 degrees Fahrenheit with the variable speed fans set on 4. Using lower fan speeds allowed the temp to rise, higher speeds saw no further reduction in temps, so I kept it at 4. From what I've read, the range in which the laptop ran using this unit is an ideal range. The lights were not really something I'm into, although if I was, they have a wide range of settings, some steady, others flashing, or scrolling. There are 8 different variations of lighting available. You scroll through them by pressing a button that has both tactile and audible clicks. If you do not want the lights on, that come on every time you turn it on, just press and hold that button for about three seconds and they shut off. If you're into lights, this unit should fit your needs. I wanted to wait for a few weeks of use before writing this review, so I could test out the unit thoroughly, including the issue of the plastic support tab breaking. I have to say it exceeds in all aspects. The tab worked flawlessly, the metal support used to elevate the angle of use, also performed flawlessly with nothing negative of note. The elevation I set it at stayed steady with no slipping of breaking.

AMAZING PRODUCT!!!! I had ordered this and had been using it for about a month before my house burned down. I managed to recover it from the rubble of my home. Absolutely certain that it would be completely ruined as I looked at the water dripping out of it and the black marks on the edges, I tried to turn it on anyway. And to my great surprise, it turned on like the fire never even happened. The pictures are AFTER ot survived a house fire.

Not a bad fan for my laptop it does the job to help keep it cool. Only function missing is a memory button to keep it on the same settings instead of having to do it every time it’s turn on

Absolutely love this cooling pad! It works even better than I expected. The 9 fans are powerful and noticeably reduce my laptop’s temperature about 20 degrees cooler during heavy use. The RGB lighting adds a sleek, gamer-style touch that looks awesome on my desk. I also appreciate the adjustable height settings and extra USB ports. Solid build and great performance definitely worth it!

Would have originally given it 5 stars. My son liked it, helped cool his laptop that would frequently get heated due to his gaming. However we’ve only owned it for 3 months and the piece that holds the laptop in place when it’s raised already broke. My son takes such good care of his things, especially anything gaming related (it’s like gold), so I know he wasn’t rough on it. I figured spending more than $15 on some cheap cooling stand would have meant it was a little better quality. Sadly disappointed.

Works fine. Noise on lower speed so i use it all the time on highest speed hope it won't die sooner because of that ...but fits the purpose and keeps my laptop cool.

Overall I have been happy with it. But the fold up slide stop to keep your laptop from sliding off is extremely fragile and broke within days with very gentle use.

excellent construction!works great!
