I decided to try this out today.&nbsp; I have a really cheap laptop and the CPU tops off pretty easily.&nbsp; When it does this, my laptops internal temperature reaches about 100 degrees celsius.&nbsp; So today I decided to warm up some food by setting my laptop on it and using a bunch of programs to make the computer work hard.&nbsp; It worked out great!<br><br><br>
 
fwiw,<br><br>I think you have invented a good way to "cook" your computer. Hi temps are bad for PCs and will eventually burn them up. Cooking on&nbsp; your engine, yes ...cooking on your computer, no!<br>
 
Haha.&nbsp; Yes I know it is terrible for the computer, so I won't make a habit out of it.&nbsp; It normally gets very warm just by using it normally, so I don't see the harm in making that heat useful. <br>
 
<P><B><FONT size=3>&nbsp;Search for "Johney Canuck" threads on the forum.&nbsp; He came up with a great light that I am going to make. If you use and make this, let me know what you come up with to sit your pot on. I mean a cooking pot. </FONT></B><BR><A href="https://vanlivingforum.com/post/show_single_post?pid=1269408014&amp;postcount=72" target=_blank target=_blank><B><FONT size=3>https://vanlivingforum.com/post/show_single_post?pid=1269408014&amp;postcount=72</FONT></B></A><BR><B><FONT size=3>He has more pics on his other posts. I have seen several people here use computer fans for moving air in their vehicles.<BR></FONT><FONT color=#00ffff size=5>Dragonfly</FONT></B><BR></P>
