Keep your Cool this summer with the launch of the CoolFan from Port Designs

Users can keep their laptop cool this summer with the launch of the CoolFan from Port Designs

This nifty little gadget provides the perfect platform for the Laptop in use as it is specifically designed to allow air to circulate underneath by using an inbuilt fan at it's base, thus reducing overheating.

Easy to use on the desk, the CoolFan benefits both the user and Laptop:

* The laptop: Increased lifespan through reduction of heat stress from both the fan and the aero-directive curved design - prolonging hard-drive and battery life and enabling the processor to maintain optimum speed during operation**.

* The operator: The elevation and angle of use reduces strain on the operator to both the wrist, whilst typing on the Laptops keyboard, and to the neck, shoulders and eyes as the unit both 'angles' the screen and raises it by 51mm.

Compact, Lightweight and portable, using CoolFan could not be more convenient as it slips into any Laptop case and is powered directly from the Laptop via USB, eliminating the need for cables or bulky chargers. The fan ensures that the Laptop is kept completely cooled whilst being energy efficient as it operates only when the Laptop is on. What's more, the CoolFan is near-silent, ensuring that the user will not be distracted whilst working.

"Poor laptop peripheral design can have a significant impact on the performance of both hardware lifespan and operator comfort," says PORT's UK MD, Colin Brown. "PORT is proud to offer a unique combination of practicality and design flair. Our products and designs are constantly evolving to reflect market needs and are all with laptop protection and user comfort in mind".

** Overheating not only shortens battery life but also slows down processor speeds as a protective mechanism cuts in above certain temperatures to slow down the rate of work.
