as long as you arent pushing it too had a wire rack or one of the laptop cooling plates work well but i am not sure what would be best if you are pushing harder than that
and i pretty much constantly kept it plugged in when it was online so battery capacity was not a major concern for my use case.
it would be public facing so the loads seem to come at random when bot nets try to brute force their way in from time to time -- i have no control over it.
i dont know how to manage a public server but for a little home lab server it worked half decent
