Laptop cooler with a swivel base.
The good guys at JETART were nice enough to send a sample of their CoolStand3 Notebook Cooler to try out. This full size laptop cooler features a swivel base and is powered by a USB port.

The two bottom clips flip out to hold the laptop in place.

A look at the base reveals the swivel – this allows users to mount a laptop and swivel it 360°:

Opening the unit shows the underside of the cooler’s top, showing the fan and USB cable:

The top is held in place with a metal bracket that adjusts the tilt angle from 20° to 50° in six steps:

The tilt feature is nice but as noted on the box, angles more than 30° will require an external keyboard. The CoolStand3 is made of plastic with a metal grill for airflow.
All told, a flexible laptop cooler with lots of adjustments for viewing angles.
In use, I found the fan quiet and the airflow substantial enough to do some real cooling. My laptops do not dissipate a lot of heat from their backs, but some of my friends have laptops with seriously warm backs. If you have such a laptop, this cooler will do some real cooling for you.
