Antec USB-Powered Notebook Cooler

So far so good, with rebate and it is as cheap as no name brand.
Shipping and packing is good. According to study, as long as you have a cooler, the hard drive last longer because of the cooling factor.

Lawd, this is the best thing I bought for black friday. I can finally type on my laptop without feeling like i'm touching a stove. And the best part - I barely notice it!!!

The only con is the strong blue light. Honestly, I might just get a small black sliver of tape and end that right there. Other than that, It's beautiful and I wish I would have bought 3-4 of these. One for my 360, one for my roommates, and one just to say I have an extra. This is no joke - it's worth the 25 dollars it is at right now (I paid like 11 for it)

OK let me cut to the chase here - before you buy this otherwise capable unit, CHECK YOUR LAPTOP FAN DIRECTION. The fans on the Antec notebook cooler only blow in one direction and they are not reversible. My laptop sucks air from the bottom and blows out the side port - unfortunately, the Antec notebook cooler sucks air from the top and blows down - the opposite direction of air flow from my Compaq laptop. This could be EASILY remedied by putting a switch or making the USB DC connector reversible. I can't believe no one thought of this before.

Otherwise, I like the design and apparent quality of the unit. It's plenty big for my 15.4" widescreen laptop. I'm going to try to solve the airflow problem by flipping the fans over if I can get into the unit without damaging it. Otherwise I am going to send it back as it will actually CREATE heating problems by reducing airflow.

The USB cable does not remain flush in the port. I have a Macbook and I find myself having to keep something on the cable to keep the cable positioned in such a way that the unit remains on. The second con is the the little rubber nubs that keep your laptop at a distance so that it can be cooled come out very easily and can be lost. I now have to contact the manufacturer about extra parts. This would be a fine product if manufacturer could improve on the minor flaws it has.

First Time I have a laptop pc, and this product fits very well, works in silence and have two speeds, it's not heavy and fits in the bag for my computer, also works for long period of time, you just plug into usb port and start working, I recomend this product even for the price.
