Occasionally, we all have an accident and get our cell phone, mp3 player, GPS Unit, video game controller or some other gadget wet. Here are some tips to help you save that wet device:
1 - Act fast, remove the battery from your device.
2 - Gently dry your device
3 - To draw the moisture from the inside of your device, try the Bheestie Bag, which is specifically designed for that purpose. Of course, we won't always have a Bheestie Bag handy so Unpluggd suggests using rice to help dry out your devices (they also offer some great suggestions on tools to maintain your electronics!)
4 - Be patient, it may take several days for your device to dry out completely. After a few days, test to see if your device still works by replacing the battery and powering on your device.
While there's no guarantee, if you act fast enough after a spill, you might be able to avoid having to buy a new device!
