My friend, Cooling pads do not work, they're just a waste of money, no matter how many fans it has, It won't change even 1° of your temperature, i bought a Three Fan one that looked like a Super Turbo thing and i even think it got hotter, i can't say they don't work at all, but not on macbooks, some older laptops have vents and fans on the lower side of the computer so a cooling pad could blow some air in it, but the macbook is a flat thing, you can even change the direction to the air because macbooks blow out air from the hinge too
One thing they do is offer you a flat surface if you are in bed or something so they can breath a bit, but even a 1$ Tray does that and even better since it can't fall off it so easily
