Low Tech Giz Tips: Water Cooled Laptop Stand

Not all the tech we buy needs to be brand new and manufactured specifically to fit our needs. With a little ingenuity and cheapness, you can rig up common household objects to do the job just as well. Here's an example of such a thing, using a $6 hot water bottle as a laptop stand for your lap instead of buying regular ones five times as much. It keeps your thighs away from the burning laptop and cools both it and your legs at the same time. Very useful for a smoldering summer day. Careful that it doesn't spring a leak though.

Pump-Up Laptop Cushion Keeps Burning Metal Away From Tender Flesh

The laptop stands we've used are great for keeping your supple thighs away from your burning laptop, but are usually fairly heavy and hard on your legs. This Airboard, however, has an inflatable base to gently sit on your lap, while at the same time providing ample distance so your leg hairs don't char. It's only a design, but is neat enough that if someone made a laptop stand like this, we'd have a hard time passing it up in stores. [Yanko Design]

Thanko's USB-Powered Laptop Fan Stand

Not only does this aluminum/steel laptop stand from Thanko look both solid and functional, it's got something Thanko's known for—USB Power. Inside the stand are two fans that blow room-temperature air into your hot laptop, which means you're keeping the laptop away from your tender gonads and helping your computer stay cool at the same time. Imagine that, Thanko coming up with a product that has USB and makes sense. Did they change management or something? [Thanko]

DIY Laptop Stand For Your Car

For those of you who can't stand being separated from your notebook, this DIY car stand lets you take your lappie on the road. It's made of PVC pipes and keeps your laptop at an adjustable angle. I've seen a lot of people hunched over their laptops while double parked, so this seems like it'd come in handy for them, but personally, I wouldn't want anything that looks like my kitchen sink drain inside my car.

Aviator Laptop Stand for Business Travelers

Keynamics says 92% of business travelers carry laptops onto the plane, so it's no wonder they decided to make a laptop stand designed specifically to fit in briefcases and fit perfectly on airplane tray tables. The Aviator weighs nine ounces, is easy to assemble, and for $19.99 it'll raises your laptop screen and tilt the keyboard down so you can lean back into your chair and type in a more ergonomically-correct position—no more painful hunching over and pecking at the keys.

Latest by Worf: Will say at least it's got an original part - the fact that the front of the laptop can spill over the edge of the tray to get that bit of extra room. Lets the screen tilt back a bit more »
