I’d be seriously concerned about the risk of water ingress, but I figure it would be much safer to just have a little fan blasting the thing.
If you don't believe me, wipe your computer down with a wet towel. Still works right?
Now submerge it, even briefly, and observe its functioning.
You could write the same comment about it being nothing like dripping or spraying water ('If you don't believe me ... Now blast a hose at it') which was my point.
Yes, but you also said it was more than rainfall. A towel is so overly shallow that it becomes less than rain.
> Any porous material would be a lot more resistant to rain than the wet towel, for example.
That doesn't sound right to me. Rain will stick around in spots, and those spots will be wetter than under a towel.
It has to be more in some way for your argument to make logical sense.
Or was I unclear that I meant "more in some situations than rain ever is". If that's it, then sorry, my bad.
