In Use:

This is what the Cooler Master NotePal X2 laptop cooler looks like when powered on. It has a cool blue lighting effect.



The next images show a USB cable plugged into the laptop and the back of the cooler



As you can see, the Notepal X2 angles the laptop for more comfortable use.



I have been using a collapsible Hiyatek brand laptop cooler, shown with the Notepal X2 in the images below. The Notepal X2 is a bit bigger and has a larger single fan, while the Hiyatek unit uses two smaller fans.



While the size of the Hiyatek was very nice to throw in to a laptop bag, its lack of adjustability to angle the laptop into an ergonomic typing position really caused it to be uncomfortable to use.
