A cooler pad or notebook cooler is a hardware accessory placed beneath a laptop that reduces the laptops overall heat by dissipating the heat using fans. Cooler pads can also help with keeping your lap cool if working on a laptop while it's on your legs. The picture shows a picture of the Belkin laptop cooling pad, which connects to your USB (universal serial bus) port to power a small fan that helps keep a good airflow beneath the laptop.

Does my laptop need a cooler pad?

Every laptop should be designed to work without a cooler pad on any flat surface. It is not abnormal for a laptop to feel hot on the bottom. If you're using a laptop on your lap or any other non-flat surface, and the laptop is overheating or rebooting, get a cooler pad.
