if you ever dropped water or liquids on a notebook and placed it in a bucket full of rice afterwards, did the notebook work again? (lemmy.ml)

rice absorbs moisture.

Curious if this works to recover notebooks or other electronics.

I’ve gotten coke on my nvme drive, after dunking it in distilled water couple of times and drying at 60 it worked 👌 the main thing which might fry anything is the case when voltage controls from battery/wall get bypassed. The chips in production are washed with deionized water on some steps, no problem. The structural damage comes from 7v+ voltages and prolonged exposure. (But something like data integrity can go to shits, that’s just chance. P.s. Obviously, you can’t heat up or wash battery).
