This $16 USB cooling pad keeps my laptop fast and quiet, even in summer heat

It wasn’t so long ago that I could predict exactly when my laptop would slowly give up the ghost on hot days. Often, the only thing that helped was pointing my desk fan at it—loud as a leaf blower and only partially effective. Fortunately, that’s all history now, because I finally treated myself to this ingenious cooling pad for just $15.99. And to be honest: I never would have thought that something so simple could make such a big difference.

The coolest gadget if you spend a lot of time on your laptop...
