Digital camera reviews of Targus AWE01US1 Chill Hub XC for Laptops from 13.3-Inches to 17-Inches
Digital camera Review: 16 months and still running!
Summary: 5 Stars
I been threw 2 cooling units before purchasing the Targus Chill USB Hub (AWE01US). The first one was a cheep white Belkin model (single fan), good for 4 months then the fan stop working. Forgot what the second model I bought was but it came with a long USB cable and it got snagged onto doorhandles when moving the laptop with cooling mat to a different locations, and that keep happing till the cable itself brooked in half (lasted 5 months).
At the time when I bought the Targus AWE01US it was around $50, kinda pricey for what I paid for the previous models I mention earlier that was around $20. Fortunately, The Targus AWE01US is still running after 16 months and I rarely shut down the laptop.
Duel fans to keep it cool.
The rubber strips dose a good job of keeping the laptop from sliding around.
Doubles as a USB hub and comes with Mini USB cable (and short in length).
Have a storage compartment for the USB cable.
Adjustable fan speeds
The leg are retractable so the mat lays flat down on your lap.
Best thing of all, its still working after over a year!
The only bad thing is the switch that is used to control the fan speed did broke off, but I can still adjust the fan speed, so its pretty minor. Plus it was pricey but I haven't been to needing replace it!
The laptop I use is a Dell Inspiron 1525 with a 15.4" display.
