For my critical ones, I have a fan pad. It is basically a usb-powered laptop
pad with a few fans to suck air through the laptop.

Some how that reminds me of trying to cool the kitchen by leaving the
refrigerator open. Hopefully you system works better than that.

A friend bought three of those recently, and proudly showed me their rated
power consumption was 1.3 watts. Their two fans each looked like about 60mm.
Probably they're worth it just to provide air space underneath instead of
insulation of a pair of legs or a tabletop without, and the fans are a bonus.
What's wrong with just using a sheet of flat black aluminum, somewhat larger area than the notebook, to move the heat around?
