Antec Notebook Cooler 200

Antec has revealed a rather cool looking notebook cooler which sits under your laptop as you work. It is called the Notebook Cooler 200 and you’ll find it pricing around $90.

The Antec Notebook Cooler 200 comes with what Antec says is a “200mm Big Boy fan” with 400 and 600RPM settings so you can adjust cooling for performance or noise levels. There’s also blue LED illumination as it operates for that extra special X-Files feeling.

ChiliPad mattress keeps your bed just right

ChiliPad mattress keeps your bed just right

This one is like the Chillow pillow we told you about last year. Instead of a pillow, it’s an entire mattress and is a good idea no matter what climate you live in. It’s capable of heating and cooling itself so you can be comfortable in bed. That way you can fall asleep faster or let it help you stay awake. The ChiliPad uses a small and nearly silent motor that they claim is similar to semi-conductor technology that cools your computer. This heats or cools water, which is pumped through coils inside the mattress.

With the included wireless remote you can control the temperature between 68F and 118F. As you might have guessed, it is not priced cheaply, $479 for a single zone twin and $999 for a dual zone king. But hopefully you can save enough money on nighttime heating in your home and cooling costs, so that it will pay for itself. It will also solve that whole Goldilocks and the 3 Bears thing: It won’t be too hot, it won’t be too cold, it will be just right.
