[Q] Laptop cooler pad - DIY
Hi All,
I've been working on a low cost DIY laptop cooler pad and have completed it. Its just a rough one with a hard board and two 12v fans with a USB cable from an old mouse. The cost worked out to around $2 :)
The fans work quite fine on 5v from the USB, but I was just wondering if there was any way of boosting the 5v output from the USB to 12v for the fans ?
The black piece of plastic on the top left corner in the first picture does nothing right now, but was planning on a switch or a potentiometer later on.
