Phone Cooler (Peltier)

A clip-on cooler that stops your phone from throttling itself when it gets hot.

What it changes

When a phone gets hot it lowers its own performance to protect itself. Frames drop and the picture stutters slightly. The awkward part is that heat peaks exactly when the workload does — a 5v5 teamfight, or a scrap around the Dark objective with effects stacking up. That is the worst possible moment to lose frames. A Peltier cooler pulls heat out of the back so the throttling does not start.

What to look at

Peltier coolers need USB power. Strong ones can form condensation on the back panel, so mount them where droplets will not run into a port. Clip mounts can overlap the edge of the screen — check they do not sit on your skill buttons. They also make noise, so plan on using them with earphones if you listen for audio cues. Before buying, try taking the case off — sometimes that alone is enough.

【スマホ発熱対策】ペルチェ式クーラーの実力は?FPSと温度変化をベンチマーク計測

ペルチェは電気を使って一方の面からもう一方の面へ熱を移動させ、冷たい面と熱い面を作る技術。冷たい面を作るだけでは足りず、高温側の熱をファンやヒートシンクで外へ逃し続けてはじめて冷却が続く。この構造なので、周囲が暑い場所では逃がしきれずに冷却力が頭打ちになる。
