Water Damage

Our customers are not always the most technologically savvy. Most of the time, this is not an issue as we can explain exactly where they are going wrong and what needs to be done to resolve their problem. However, there are times when this lack of know-how has quite the detrimental effect.

Electronic equipment is very sensitive to liquid damage and should not be exposed to it. Unfortunately, one customer dropped their device in a toilet. Knowing that his device would not work when wet, he attempted to dry it out. In the microwave.

Sparks and smoke ensued. Fortunately, there was not a full-fledged fire, but there was no saving his device and little hope for the microwave.
