llanoV10 Gaming Laptop Cooling Pad, RGB Laptop Cooler Stand with Powerful 4.72 Inch External Turbo Cooling Fan, Fast Cooling Computer 13-17.3in, Button Control, 3 Adjustable Stand, 4-Port USB C&AClimatePartner certified

I've owned 5 other cooling pads. They were all $20 - $35 pieces of plastic junk, or maybe light metal junk that felt like plastic. They all had pretty colored lights, had varying noise levels, and would cool my gaming laptops down by maybe 2 or 3 degrees at most, and most of that minimal effect was probably due to the fact that they elevated the laptop at an angle, allowing more air to circulate.I saw the Llano on sale for about three times as much as the junk pads and thought "how much better can this thing be for close to a hundred clams?". The answer is ... a lot! (All degrees mentioned are in Celsius.)Pros:* Lowered average in use over time temps by about 10 to 15 degrees on mid-range speed settings (1200 to 1500 rpm).* Instantaneous cooling of 15 to 20 degrees once turned on.* After hours of intensive 5060 gaming, max temp was less than 80 and averaged about 55 to 65 degrees.* Low noise levels - barely audible at 1500 rpm and about 65 dB at full (3500 rpm) speed.* Nicely integrated side mounted LED panels if you care about such frippery.* Can hold laptop in plane with laptop completely flat and still works fine. (Elevation is an option but not a necessity.)* 1 in 3 out USB hub - connect to laptop with USB C cable and you get two USB A ports and one USB C port out. (But these are not 3.2 standard...)Neutral:* Cannot be powered by your laptop, needs separate power plug and cable. The junky ones can power their meager selves off your USB A port, but you get what you pay for in those cases - i.e. more convenient power and barely noticeable function.* Can only be used with laptops with bottom vents / intakes. Most have these, but not all.* Not entirely thrilled with the hub feature set. Would rather connect with a USB A cable (many laptops have only a single USB C port and that is often a high speed 4.0 or Thunderbolt port, so it hurts to lose it by connecting it to the cooler hub) and then I wish the hub ports out were more modern standards. I usually don't bother with even connecting the hub, but I would if it offered superior functionality.Cons:* Cost* Not especially portable, even less so with separate power plug and cable.Bottom Line: Running your laptop at 70 degrees or lower consistently can add years to its life, and this is the only effective cooler I've found that can guarantee that performance. Junk coolers are cheaper, but at the end of the day do not do the job you want them to do.

Before I get into my review, I want to mention that if your laptop doesn't have bottom vents, you might want to save your money and skip the Llano V10 Pro. The instructions suggest not using the foam in that case, but honestly, you won’t get much benefit without bottom vents. This fan won't magically cool through a sealed case. But if your laptop has bottom vents, read on...This cooling pad works. I was skeptical at first, but my laptop temperatures dropped by 10-20°C depending on the activity. And this is at less than half fan speed. The biggest reductions happen during high-heat activities like gaming, but even general use shows improvement.In terms of cooling, I give this an A++. It really does the job. My Llano V10 Pro used to get hot enough to make the keyboard uncomfortable to touch, but with this pad, that issue is gone. I've tried other cooling pads that either did nothing or made things worse.As for noise, if you crank it to full speed, it's loud. There's no sugarcoating it. However, I usually run it at about one-third speed, where you can hear it, but it's not obnoxious. It's more of a "what’s that faint sound?" level. If you need to run this at 100%, you likely need more than just a cooling pad. Even at full speed, though, using headphones can help. The only downside is an annoying whine at lower RPMs, and since it's controlled with a physical dial, finding the right setting can be a bit tricky.When it comes to lighting, I'm indifferent. I don’t care much for it. I did struggle to turn off the disco light show at first (no instructions provided), but eventually, I managed to find a single color I liked.Stability and build quality are impressive. My laptop is heavy, yet it doesn't budge on this pad. The pad itself is sturdy and doesn’t slide around, and the laptop stays put as well. Before buying, I saw a review saying it’s just a fan in a case with foam, and while that's true, it's a solid case with a great fan. The foam helps direct the airflow to the laptop instead of the desk. The USB hub is something I didn't bother with, so if that’s important to you, check other reviews.Ergonomically, it’s a bit unusual but not bad. The sturdy braces at the bottom keep your laptop in place but stick up even at the lowest setting, which can be slightly annoying depending on where you rest your hands. The pad allows for raising the back to different heights, though some of the increments seem impractical. Fortunately, the main height options are comfortable.My main complaint is the complete lack of documentation. There’s none. They do indicate which foam to use (which is important), but figuring out the lights is a guessing game. Good luck!One thing to watch out for: check where your laptop vents are. Mine are toward the center/back, so I had to adjust the braces to position the laptop correctly over the fan. There are three brace positions, so it should accommodate most layouts, but make sure to position the vents properly.If your laptop has temperature issues, I highly recommend the Llano V10 Pro. It works.

Same day delivery. Product works great on my ASUS ROG 14” gaming laptop. Reduces CPU/GPU temp 10-15 C. Easy controls. Adjustable fan speed and LED colors. USB ports for mouse, keyboard or other peripherals. Foam pad channels air flow properly and reduces fan noise, which is very low at lower speeds. I haven’t had to raise above 700rpm to get good temp reduction.

It works fantastic helps maintain my laptop cool while gaming. It still heats up, but not as overwhelming like before. Before it would get too hot to touch. I also like the extra ports to connect stuff. Helps me clear out the sides.I haven't had any faults or errors. The only thing is that when things are plugged in, it still runs power even if its off. I noticed my mouse, and a USB light up and won't turn off unless I unplug the power cable. Also if your mouse is plugged in. If you turn on and the mouse dont work, unplug the cable that goes to your laptop and plug back in. It works right away. Either way its no big deal, still an amazing purchase. Highly recommended. Had it for a month will update if something stops working.
