New to the growing iPad cooling case category are models from Wombat Ware. The Australian company was founded in 2021 by Julian Chua, who grew the hardware design that originated to keep iPads cool for team sporting events to cockpit use. And if you’ve ever had an iPad overheat in flight, you recognize the need.
Not unlike the MyGoFlight and X-Naut models (see the roundup in the September 2022 Aviation Consumer), the Wombat Ware cases—which for now are only available for iPad Mini models—are extremely lightweight (101 grams) and equipped with 650- mAh batteries that power two cooling fans for roughly five hours.
