In my time at DragonSteelMods, I have had an opportunity to review several laptop lap desk solutions, some have been outstanding and others less so. Today I will be looking at the latest two products from LapLogic . The G800 Aerogel Extreme LapDesk & W800 Aerogel Extreme LapDesk are the newest members of the LapLogic family and these pads have some impressive technology behind them. These LapDesks incorporate Aspen Aerogels, which is a company that uses nano-technology for their insulation. This technology allows their insulation to provide protection from even the most extreme temperature ranges, just check out their demo involving a blow torch and dry ice. Don’t believe me, check out their video! http://www.aerogel.com Now, I know we will never be using a blow torch or placing our laptops on a block of dry ice, but having that type of protection available is definitely nice! Aerogel insulation holds the Guinness Book of World Records record for best thermal insulation known to man, besides the Aerogel used, LapLogic has some other tricks up their sleeve to make these some of the best lapdesks in the market. Other key features include integrated ½” standoffs with a special no slip material and C²R Thermal Technology to block most forms of heat transfer. The G800 is the smaller, more portable model while the W800 provides extra space to use as a mouse pad, storage surface or even as a drink holder. The extra space on the W800 is composed of a 10x8” Scotch Guard coated nylon mouse pad. So let’s find out if space age technology truly makes the best lapdesk in the world. Let’s get started…..
