It uses too much energy and will heat your laptop too much and reduce its life time.

Mobile processor has lower performance.
Also laptop is not suitable for mining because its cooling power is not good.

What a laptop differs from pc? High price and worst cooling. High price extends the payback period. Worst cooling leads to more rapid wear.

As others stated above, it's not feasible.

If you have a laptop that's powerful enough to be usable for mining, and you don't care about ruining it by pegging it 24/7, you may as well sell the laptop and trade for the cryptos you wanted to obtain by mining.

Some laptops have desktop processors, but that really only makes the heat worse.

Just to add on, the mobile GPUs on notebooks can also be used for mining and it typically runs cooler than the CPUs.

The inability to cool itself efficiently is really the deal breaker for laptop mining.

there is several problems with mining with a laptop PC :
 - the cooling : laptop system cooling are not very efficient and not made for h24/D7 use,
 - the hashrate : laptop CPUs are less powerfull than desktop CPUs,
 - the price : a laptop is more expensive than a desktop.

Yes.Mining in a desktop is very though .You are speaking about laptop.!!!In desktop PC itself you need of high configuration and Graphics cards to do Mining and Cooler is must to avoid of burst.It's not possible to do mining with Laptop.If you want to do so.It's some how possible.But you need to inverse double amount as you inverse for Desktop PC.

well, my experience  with Asus G55Jv
you can run or Aeon miner ( cpu miner) or some VGA miner with a play with intensity setting you may achieve  some results

you may earn like 0.5-0.7$ usd with that within you temp limit for 78-82C
if you will beyond that limit then you have risk to burn you laptop..

I am absolutely agree with comments about words cooling of laptop. Sometimes I use it but for a short time. After it my laptop was working with bugs!

Laptop cooling sucks. Most laptops nowadays are designed to be super slim and mining often makes the fans spin at very high rates which can cause early fan failure on the laptop and heat throttling and just plain high temps. Throttling also means you'll be getting less performance on most laptops. There's a reason why mining is usually only done on desktops, and there's good reasons why.
