It finally happened...
« on: Sun, 26 August 2012, 15:30:55 »
I spilled some Bawls energy drink on my Rosewill RK-9000.  Its currently drying from a sink rinse as well as a bath for the keycaps.  I assumed it would be a good idea to take the o-rings off before bathing the keys so I did.  Bright side is I get to spend some quality time with my Acer 6311-K :)

after the sink rinse, you may want to bathe it in distilled water for a while, then let dry... hopefully that is all it needs.  And yeah, what Finwens said.  (but you'll have a Cherry board to play with in a couple days too...)

Why not whiskey, wine or something else more classy. Worst case the chip is gone, but do not worry you can always use teensy

I don't think anything happened to it at all, I unplugged it immediately and only really rinsed it because I didn't want sticky keys.

You gotta have Bawls to wash your keyboard in the sink like that! :P
