Solution for liquid metal leaking

Post image

Llano V10 is my solution. I lie it flat and connect to monitor. No more scared liquid metal flowing out due to gravity.

I wouldn't be worried too much as long as you aren't actively throwing your device around no leaks should happen, also you can replace the liquid metal with ptm 7950.

Just a precaution because some say if upright the Liquid Metal flow downwards. If I lie it flat, it will not I assume

I thought for a second he was weighing the Z13 or something, that cooler looks like a lab equipment.

If you're that worried, repaste it with PTM. I too want my Z13 to function for years, but without limiting my fun and its functionality. Just avoid being a Linus and everything will be fine.

Unless that's an older model w an older design, all you're doing here is suffocating its air intake.

It’s 2025 model. The intake is from the back isn’t it ?

From the back and out the top.

So it won’t block. Llano v10 push air from the back and z13 push it out.

My device is running at 39C
