Electronics + Dust = Failure

 

With the cold weather we tend to stay indoors more and our electronic gadgets get heavy use. Combined with a increase in dust, greater temperature fluctuations your electronics get quite a work out. One factor that leads to the most failures is dust! Electronics use cooling systems of parts that generate large amounts of heat. These are basically a series of metal fins that increase the surface area and help dissipate heat. If dust collects in these fins it can render them useless. Here is a picture of a clogged cooling system.

Take time at least once a month and blow out your electronics with compressed are and it will greatly increase the life and function of your electronics. If you need any help feel free to post or call Full Throttle LLC at 419-973-1005. Thanks
