Belkin Laptop Cooling Hub

Dunno if I was just lucky but I have been using my Hub for the last 3 weeks almost day and for long periods of time.My laptop stays cool. Have also found the spare usb ports usfull on occassion prevents the usual juggling (shall I remove tablet or exturnal to plug my printer in) The I also found did the job also used as cable tidy. Did fold up on occassion while trying to get into position but once there its sturdy enough. The last few weeks has been used in one spot but yesterday I started work again and will see how it stands up to dragging to work and back.

I bought one of these cooling hubs before they thought about incorporating USB ports which would be very useful if using the laptop on a desk, superfluous if not. Having lost two laptops recently to what my local computer repairer called overheating-related problems, the cooling hub is my way of trying to avoid a further event. So far so good. The hub is audible but not intrusive and certainly keeps the laptop underside much cooler than without it. In fact my laptop system monitoring shows the processor temperature and this was kept consistently lower by the hub - to the point where the laoptops internal fan was not needed, even after 30 minutes continuous use.

Well, usually the Belkin product stand up longer than a day! Fan shattered! No reason, just 3 blades broke off. The base has a stand to raise it at an angle, but the stand folds down at the slightest movement. Very disappointed!
