Ultimate notebook cooler!!!

What size is your PowerBook/iBook? How does it look on the cooler? Do you have any pictures of your laptop on that thing? Thanks.

 

iBreeze

i picked up an iBreeze for my 12" PB a while ago
i like it plenty

but having 4 USB ports vs just the 1 that the ibreeze offers would be nice.. also being able to control the 'speed' of the fans...etc

might make it quieter during the night...etc
that'd be nice

reguardless- it looks cool

size on the Labtech one ur are mentioning is:
Dimensions: 300 x 262 x 20mm
but it weights 1.5 lbs!

*shrug

the ibreeze is all plastic- weighs just about nothing
and is slightyly smaller than the footprint of my 12" pb...

6 to 1
half dozen the other
i'd guess...

 

iCurve is plastic .. $30 for a piece of plastic, yeah! but I like mine.

but seriously I'm not sure how much the PBs need external fans .. I'd guess not much need at all

 

Does the fan make noise? It probably does, so it's no good to me. The pricing seems reasonable though, although I would replace the fans with some Papst german-engineered fans that run silent.

 

Theres a review of it here. http://hi-techreviews.com/modules.php?name=News&file=article&sid=807

Now I wonder if I can get one downunder with correct AC power...and will it fit my 17"...

 

...Anybody else get the feeling that this noob "yOyOYoo" is trying to sell something...

 

Fans!/??

I have a 15.in with 1.25 gigs of ram and have it constantly running at highest performance while doing video rendering, safari, itunes and photoshop opening (not with maximum efficency) and its on a icurve stand it is just mildly warm. I dont see the need for fans..Seems like a little elevation would do.

 

Lol, I thought the same thing when I first checked out his post. But he did joi a while ago, and has 17 posts, so it is probably not true (....unless he did those posts on purpose, so that he did not seem suspicious!)

 

I use an ibook on a desk and encoding a dvd for 3 hours running at 65+C doesn't seem that healthy. Especially if done on a regular basis. I tried elevating it as well which made the process a little slower, but still went up to 70C sometimes.

I guess it's okay for the fan to kickin for a bit but I'm sure I wouldn't want my ibook running really hot for an extended period of time. I'm sure it would last either, I just want mine to last longer. =)

I use a laptop cooler now as well.

 

This is pretty nice. Last night I purchased some off brand stand for $20. I just wanted a little elevation for a reasonable price. What I noticed (which is why it is going back) is that it is about 1.5" all around smaller than my 15" pbook. When I was typing on it I rest my wrists on the pbook's corners mostly. I noticed that it was unstable and if I were to lift one hand the pbook would start to tip ever so slightly.

I will be using a kvm switch so in time I won't even be using the pbook's keyboard, but I still want something that is stable. I would hate for the pbook to jump off the desk because of some unstable stand.

 

I appologize for coming on harsh. I love to rant about products as well, it just sounded to me like you were pitching something...as it often shows up on these forums. No harm intended.
