The TECKNET N5 cooling pad is 11” deep x 14” wide. There are two LED lighted 110mm fans with a power switch that controls both lights (2 tiny LED lights under each fan) and fans (they cannot be controlled separately.) To indicate when the power and fans are on, there is a blue LED light in the back beside the red, rocker power switch. It is quite bright and might bug your friends if you work facing one another on a desk. The TECKNET cooling pad also comes with a welcome guide that has a welcome, specifications, features, contents, configurations, ergonomics, safety and the 18-month warranty. TECKNET includes a card that specifies you can claim a 6 month warranty extension for a total 2-year free warranty if you register!
It comes with a USB to USB cable and there are two USB 2.0 ports on the back next to the power switch, one which you must use to power the fans via USB from your laptop of other USB power source. That leaves one open USB for other uses.
The second USB port will charge my phone (iPhone 5s) but not open the phone to transfer photos or connect to iTunes as I can with a direct cable. However, my flash drive DOES open and I can open and transfer files.
The base of my laptop while on the pad sits about 1.75” (to a maximum of 2” inches if sitting higher up on the pad) high in the back and about 0.9” high in front giving it a slight upward slope (which I like). The slope is actually a very natural angle for me.
The fans a very quiet when switched on. Just a swishing noise. The fans pull air from the side and below and push air to the laptop bottom. It has actually been very hot here and the fans have kept the normally warm underside of the computer cool to the touch. But the real test of a cooling pad is the effect on the cores.
Here are RealTemp reports for temps (in °C) in 2 sensors uncooled and cooled at two working levels

10% work fans on

These were taken on a 15.6” Acer ASPIRE 5733 with Intel Pentium P6100 that has been “amped up” a little. As an aside, I also just took the whole laptop apart a while back and cleaned out the mass of dust that was in the fan and vents! It was overheating so badly that it would shut down. Once I cleaned it out, that stopped.
As you can see, it is cooling the laptop about 5°C +/-.
I work on a standup podium desk or seated and the cooling pad is very stable and sturdy. The laptop is also very stable on the cooling pad. I have to actually pick up the laptop to reposition it on the cooling pad. I also have to pick up the cooling pad to reposition it on the desk. The cooling pad has rubberized feet on all four corners on the bottom that keep it from sliding around and raise it to allow airflow. On top it has a single long rubber bar to keep the laptop in place. Also on the bottom are open slats to allow airflow. I have used the cooling pad and laptop on my lap and it works well. It is far better than putting a bare computer on your lap!
Previously, I used the Targus Laptop Chill Mat 17”. It died after two hot years of use, but had only a 1-year warranty. It also cost almost twice as much. The Targus also had two fans where the air was pulled in and up toward the laptop but it lacked an extra USB port to make up for the one used up. The Targus had no LED lights, a slightly steeper tilt and a neoprene covering. The neoprine is the only difference I note when I have the laptop in my lap and I have bare legs, however, I almost always raise it up on a pillow to be at the right height for me, so that is moot.
It does not appear to put much of a drain on the computer...it says 0.41A current and 2.05W input. I have not noticed a dramatic reduction in laptop battery time while unplugged and using the TECKNET cooling pad.
I am happier to have the extra USB on the TECKNET, as I seem to always be using all the ports on my computer. Further, the lesser slope of the TECKNET cooling pad feels more natural and less straining on my wrist and I am happy about that. Plus, the 2-year warranty is better!
As a note, the fans on both units seem underpowered (reported as 1200 RPM and 38.5 CFM), though both offered similar cooling. However, this may be a USB power consideration, and you can see that they do provide some cooling.
I was initially worried about the LED on the TECKNET, but I find, even in low light, that I don’t notice it while I work. Further, as you can barely hear the fans, it acts as a reminder when the fans are still on!
I am happy with the TECKNET cooling pad and will report back throughout its life!

Product Description
TECKNET Ergonomic Laptop Cooler for Lap
Laptop cooling pad rests on your lap and disperses heat generated by the laptop, using dual fans to provide ventilation which can be obstructed if the laptop is used directly on a pillow or comforter.
It can also be used when sitting cross-legged. The laptop cooler not only disperses the heat, but also provides a flat surface for the computer to sit on.

TASTEFULLY DESIGNED WELL BUILT COOLING FOR MAC LAPTOPS PAD FOR A COOL 10°+ DROP IN HARDWARE TEMPS
The first screenshot is with pad second higher temperature hardware it is without.TechNet made a great product! It is one of the only coolers for a laptop that is a modular unit without moving parts which makes me feel more comfortable that it won't break and/or my laptop won't slide off and crash onto the floor as I've seen with many of the other coolers for a laptop. I have a MacBook Pro and Mac laptops in general have serious issues with cooling. However this cooler if positioned right with the rear of the laptop over the back of the fan it's quite impressive! I performed a real-world test that I will post where I had the computer practically overloaded with task and in less than a minute my CPU and Battery temperatures dropped 10 degrees. After spending $2,300 on my MacBook Pro I'd like it to last with it's I said him CPU and it's 16 gigabytes of RAM and 512 gigabyte solid-state hard drive. Additionally a 13 inch 2015 retina MacBook Pro so given its compact size the hardware is squeezed into a little space causing more problems with heating. I used to work for Intel as a wrap and have a lot of experience (15+ years) with building computers, repairing cell phones, and doing lots of work high intensity/hardware taxing programs as a digital media artist. I highly recommend this product given it's results and modular construction. The worst thing that might happen would be the fans would fail, unlike competing units where supporting hardware holding the pad up good break causing your laptop to do the same. I also like that it doesn't hackbright blue LED lights in the fans, since I render video often at night and previously have found that those types of cooling pads will keep me up. I personally feel they look kind of tacky. Since it's the holidays if you're buying inexpensive laptop for someone or even for yourself $20 to extend its lifetime is undoubtedly worth it. I hope that I helped prospective buyers, and feel free 2 ask me questions. I've only had the unit for a day and will update the review in a couple of weeks with my experience with this cooling pad. If I did help you please note that my review was helpful I'd very much appreciate it.Update on my review:My first impression were better than the impressions after actually using it for work, where I tax my rMBP. My average temp has now been about 97 F. Mind you, that I'm doing a Time Machine Backup through the one usb provided after the one required to power the pad. They should've indicated that there's really only one usb port given that the device needs one to power. Both of my CPU temps have been about 100 F and up and my battery between 80 and 97 degrees. This is however using the usb in the pad to run a 2 TB drive with 2 Time Machine backups for about 10 hours whilst attached to the charger. Additionally I've done exports from my GoPro's, both through my USB and SD card slot, and simultaneously run Illustrator and Photoshop. I'll give and update later when I'm not taxing my computer to the max. Hope I helped.
