Introduction

Vantec are a company who are well known for providing cooling solutions for a whole range of applications. We thought it would be good to take a look at a solution for those of you who are on the move.

The Lapcool 2 is a solid looking laptop cooler that claims to help with running temperature on your laptop. We take it for a test drive...

Packaging

Coming well packaged from Tekheads I wasn't very worried about the state of the product, but it's always nice to see how it would protect your new cooler from some l ess than excellent companies .

The packaging is pretty bright and colourful, and clearly displays the product and features. Protection isn't amazing, but it's unlikely that the product could be damaged too much so it's not really an issue.

Package

The package with the Lapcool is pretty basic, but that's to be expected of such a basic and functional product.

You get:

* Lapcool 2 laptop Cooler
* USB Power Wire

You get all you need to use the product so I don't see this as a downpoint for the product, I can't actually think of what else you'd want with it.

The fans are 70mm which could mean they get a bit whiney, although the overriding noise during my testing was of the air moving over them.
