There are no specs listed on amazon. What can this safely handle? Can it handle say 2 laptops at once or a laptop and powered cooler?

Hi, I believe you'll need to figure out what the amperage is of the power supplies that what you want to run and if anything else is running on the same circuit. I read in the reviews and elsewhere that you should use this accessory with a 15A or less fuse, so I have it on a circuit with 15A in my travel trailer. My laptop 12v power supply uses 3.5A, the Coleman 12v cooler uses 5A, the phone charger uses 1.5A I think. I have run the cooler and a charger at the same time without it melting or blowing a fuse. I did fry the last dual power outlet (different make, felt cheaper) with the same usage (Caveat: I am not an electrician and am just sharing my experience.)

I would think that for a cooler or laptop you would need a power inverter 12 volt dc to 110 ac, the auxiliary power outlet would only be putting out 12 volts, unless the cooler and or laptop run on 12 volts then yes.

Depends on the size of the inline fuse you use. A 15amp inline fuse should be sufficient to run 2 laptops. Or a laptop and a cooler.

I got the U31SD-XH51 with 2nd-Gen Intel iCore5 and a discrete nVidia GPU for heavy tasks (was on sale for $600USD) instead so I can't exactly tell you anything here. Mine runs extremely cool for browsing stuff and watching videos (fan doesn't even run at all unless I play 3D games). I also give credit to Asus for a well-designed cooling system on their laptop brand. Sources: I still own an HP-DV2210us model so I know exactly what you mean.

yes... the specs on the fan refers to the usage (current usage or the "draw") and the power adapter refers to the max allowable amperes. It should be fine. I love it.. it has a moderate hum but great air flow. I'm looking to add two more to my tower/server.

the awe81us 2 "SMALL" fans blow air towards the bottom of the laptop, however they are noisy, at least the two I have are, and are not adequate enough for my 17" laptops. Plus the two laptops slide off the front when tilted up. Says it supports upto 17" laptops, well, they hang off the side and slide down the front, not enough lip or rubber in front to keep in on.

I currently use it for my server laptop. I had it on my gaming rig but it does not produce enough air flow to keep her cool so I use a Cooler Master NotePal LapAir for my gaming rig now. I would only recommend this for light use laptops (web browsing, flash games, etc).

I highly doubt you'll be using two processors to their limit, yes a 850-watt power supply will suffice. In fact, I believe you'll be perfectly fine with it even if you're running the system to its highest capabilities.

I'm not sure about that description, but the cooling base has three 2" fans and plugs in a USB port and has a feed thru. They are well worth the money and mine was still running fine when I sold it a month ago, and it never ran hot after I started using it. Forget the discription, and buy it. Best Bang for your buck in this category. It's as good a cooler as the expensive ones, so don't waste your money on the big names, and save on this cooler. It's not bullet proof, but I have dropped, and sat on it and it didn't break. Hope this helps you make a good choice??

The actual width is 11-3/4 inches. I am using it with a 13 inch laptop with no problems. It would support larger laptops, however, the laptop would need to stay centered on the cooler so that the stops at the bottom are centered with the laptop to prevent side slippage. Personally, I don't see where you could not use a larger laptop on the Gear Head Dual-Cool but care with positioning would have to be taken.

The total number of devices that can be supported by this power supply is defined by the amount of watts each units requires.If you have more then 700 watts worth of devices in your computer, I would suggest strongly that you get a larger power supply.This is an amazong amount of power so a normal two GPU system will not add up to this large number.

I placed the information you gave me in a power supply calculator. I didn't have all the info on your pc so I guessed at some things, such as 2 dvd drive instead of 1, and 2 hard drives instead of 1. The answer I got was a recommended 345 watt power supply. In that case, this power supply here will work great! But I encourage you to do your own power calculations because you have more info about your pc than I do. This is the online calculator I used--&gt; http://www.thermaltake.outervision.com/ the CPU Socket for your pc is--&gt; Socket LGA 1155. Hope I have been able to help you.

If you have more than one or two internal hard-drives you might want to go with the bigger wattage. I have a home server that I loaded up too many drives and the overloaded the power supply to the point it wouldn't boot.

Really depends on what else your running. But if your not very USB heavy and your not using much else only standard stuff like a single hard drive. Should be ok on 460. I use a litigation stuff though so I'm on 750watt

I have one of these set up with standard drives and am able to run two VMs at the same time easily. I assume that SSDs would make it a bit faster though.

I'm not sure about the new model stuff. I know they came out with a lower wattage chip but nobody wants less power :) I think you are safe with this one. I've built 6 computers with it. Solid.

I'd imagine so, if you have a Ac power adapter that has a 3pin fan connector on it. That's the only connection on it. does your custom laptop cooler have 10 fans on it? because there are other adapters that can be powered by molex and plenty of Ac power adapters out there for molex connections. 2 Amp, 12v/5v Ac/dc Power Adapter with 4 Pin Molex Connector by OKGEAR 2 Amp, 12v/5v Ac/dc Power Adapter with 4 Pin Molex Connector one of these and molex to 3pin should work with it. or any other fan controler with molex

I have safely used the 500 watt capacity for lamps, coffee pots, kindle, vaporizer, DVD player, etc but never used it for a laptop.

I installed this on my grandson's computer with 350watt power supply. Only one hard drive and one dvd/cd drive. As long as you don't have a lot of power consuming additions you should be ok!
