How can I power surge my laptop?

Question

I bought a laptop from a local computer store last year and purchased an additional service plan that allows me to get a new laptop if mine is ever power surged. So I figured its time to put the warranty into action.

Does anybody know an easy way how I can power surge my laptop? Is there any way of them knowing it was intentionally done?

Answer 1

I would be careful. The warrantly likely has alot of underwriting about techincalities. For example your adapter might be rated as a surge protector itself shorting out and saving the system making your policy essentialy a ripoff. The only way you can get a surge big enough to jump accross any line is lightning. It claims everything.

You could use a gasoline generator and then up the voltage. Better still just have your system run in a room with a hot shower and humidifier. Let the pc dry a few days. It will leave no evidence unless you have hard water.
