I'm looking to get one, so I've been checking Ebay. Any recommendations?



There seems to be a lot of them for ~20 dollars, but I want it to last...

The gel ones work well. I've got one. As it heats up, it turns to liquid and stays cool. Its really good the way it works.

Get something that has fans and plugs in via a USB port. I got one for $5 at Five Below and use it for DJing. It keeps the laptop very cool since the fans on the cooler blow air and keep the heat away.
