water spill on laptop

[tomhay]

I was in a rush this morning and spill my water bottle next to my laptop, when i came back home after 5h, i press the power button and it wont turn on. I found out there are water and quickly pull out the plug.

I heard that device with batery can short circuit, can still be dry out if you are lucky. But my laptop was plug all morning and the power button have been press 1-2 times by my dumbass.

Is there still hope if i disassemble and dry it out?

Well... get yourself a whole heap of rice and something big enough to hold the laptop. Leave it in there for 24-48h and then try again.

 

if that fails it’s probably fried

Yeah thats the best we can do for you here. Also if its sunny try putting the rice and the laptop in the sun. It might speed things up a little bit.

I also watch out with heat and wet electrical equipment. I’d rather have it dry naturally in the shade (which also has warmth depending where you live around the globe) or just inside somewhere.
