Struggling to see how this will not get clogged up in a week flat. Tiny membranes moving air through a narrow slit sounds like bad news for even moderately dusty houses. Hopefully I'm missing something there though because fanless would be ideal

From the LTT video linked elsewhere in these comments (timestamp 6:13), it has insanely high static pressure, which means you can install dust filters on the actual laptop intake, in addition to the AirJet itself having a dust filter, without sacrificing airflow. In addition, supposedly there's a reverse airflow mode that would allow it to blast dust out of the dust filters.

Oh that's actually clever. Thanks for sharing

That makes me wonder why regular laptop cooling can't also be specced with stronger fans to allow for dust filters...

On one side it doesn't appear to be a big problem.
