My laptop keyboard is getting dirty and lot of dust stuck inside.
Can anyone tell me if the small electronic vacumn is the most effective way to clean up the dust inside the keyboard?
And how much is it around?

Thanks for your answer!

Go get a flexibe silicone keyboard like mine...although it needs sometime to adapt to it but its very easy to clean...i jus wash wif water instead of vacuuming it. No need afraid to type while eating cuz i can wash it anytime

Oh, that is cool... So convenient and safe to have such a washable keyboard... How much is it going for, btw?

He said he is using a Laptop..
and..nope i dont know if it works or not coz from the looks, it looks kinda weak..but thats just me tho

If the vacuum is USB powered then I say you'll waste your money and time. I've tried 1 and those vacuums are useless. It can't even suck a speck of dust. The most efficient way is to get a brush.

how about using normal vacuum.. izzit safe?

Small vacuum? Use a full blown vacuum like me=)

use car vacuum laaa
confirm can suck lot of thing including stone
serious maa, it won't affect anything

the car vacuum that you plug into the ciggarette lighter thingy? Hmm....Looks like have to get one of those....

I got one of those USB vacuum thingy for free and guess what, it's WORTHLESS. You can't suck anything up with that low powered motor.

turn off n close the lappy, terbalik it, shake as hard as u can, then open up, u'll c lot of dust felt on the screen

Or just use a moist cloth (not too wet, remember!) and clean the screen as well as keyboard with it... You can then see the amount of dust gathered on the cloth... I tell u, it will be very dusty!

^^ wah .. rosak or not later ? later shake too vigorously then inside part rosak haha

huhuhuhu everybody here, buy dell n my technique will get proved, one year complete cover

chieh u complete cover don bother about it la ..
u can just slam in to the floor then u get a new 1 wat ?
no need bother 2 clean the keypads already haha

i think the car vaccum is the proper stuff to do thing like this
may be u have to change the wire by asking an electrician on how to change the adapter
the car vacuum not to noisy but reliable la

your right, even the high powered vacuum with 1200watts cant even get all the dust, but if you use a brush tip with vacuum that can get the dirt

Thanks for your guys suggestions.
I would try to use a brush,a clothes or car vacumn to clean it up.
I not dare to shake it because I might spoil the laptop :-P

I think you better not shake the laptop... U know lah, these types of PC have small parts that may be sensitive to hard shakes and once these items are spoilt, you'll have to go through the hassle of repairing the PC...

Give those methods a shot to clean your keyboard up lor... One of them should work for you!

LOL dell complete cover warranty.... backup yr files and pour water on it.... NEW Wun lolx jkjkjk lolx

use high powered vacum cleaner la
