DLx DESCRIPTION
Internal Active Airflow Cooling for Closed-Screen Laptops
The Cooling Dock model DLx supports and quietly cools 2012-2015 MacBook Pro (Intel Retina), 2010-2018 MacBook Air (Intel pre-Retina), and select PC closed-screen laptops (see specs) with direct internal processor cooling.
The DLx and all Cooling Dock models work with the laptop operating in closed-screen clamshell mode while connected to one or more external monitors, external keyboard/mouse and power supply. All Cooling Dock models also feature a unique and stable leaning support for easy clamshell setup while the laptop remains connected to cables and safely in a padded cradle with adjustable/replaceable laptop retention pads.
All SVALT cooling systems use modular bolted / snapped assemblies and ship with the tools required for right-to-repair servicing, exchanging, upgrading and extending product life span.
SVALT designs innovative patented and/or patent pending products made locally in the Pacific Northwest with a focus on sustainability, and use solid aluminum for enduring metal construction.
