I might try chucking one under my AV receiver - that's usually smokin' hot! If it's meant to be USB powered, I guess it'd probably run off a wall-wart 5vdc supply okay.

I bought a similar device for my old laptop as it would regularly get way too hot. However, the biggest intervention for reducing the temperature was to blow some compressed air into the ventilation holes. There was a giant puff of dust and a reduction of 20 degrees according to Speedfan.

It's good, PCs and laptops gather dust in the fans etc. so his was 20 degrees cooler. You can buy cans of compressed air for about 6 quid.
