Laptop Cooling Pad for your Lap

Author Thomas | 12.05.2008 | Category Accessories, Electronics, Home & Garden

Remember when the term “laptop” changed to “notebook”? It was probably around the time when people figured out that laptops get really hot and not comfortable to hold on your lap.

There have been many gadgets out there to help return the “notebook” to “laptop” status. Some a big and bulky, while others are so small, they won’t accommodate the larger laptops.

The Lap Mat provides a great solution to the problem. The Lap Mat has a leatherette (i.e., fake leather) top with a nice stitching detail around the edges. The support surface is strong yet slightly flexible. Under the laptop support surface a pillow filled with soft beads helps to diffuse the laptop heat even more and provides a comfortable cushion to the lap mat.

The cushion can be removed from the laptop support (it’s attached by Velcro). I suppose you would do so if your laptop bag was large enough to put the lap map inside and you wanted to use the cushion as a pillow when flying.

The Lap Mat easily accommodates large, 17″ wide screen laptops.

Because your lap tends to slope downward, you might try combining the Lap Mat with the Cool Lift Portable Notebook Cooling Pad (from the same manufacturer).

The Lap Mat is available on Amazon.com (Direct Product Link).
