[QUOTE="Brojon, post: 108369, member: 11898"] If there's one internet myth I'd like to wipe off the planet this is it. I'm an experienced electronics guy and rice is NOT a desiccant and never will be effective in removing water in any way. If the item was submerged then rinse in distilled/deionized water. Then put in a bag and liberally pour 90+% Isopropyl alcohol all over and inside. Swish around and dispose. Repeat several times and dry with hair dryer on low. Let sit for 24 hrs. Alcohol absorbs many times its weight in water and is much easier to evaporate. It also won't harm any components inside. PS: please don't bother saying you know a guy that the rice worked -- if it "worked" it simply wasn't wet enough to matter. The rice didn't do a thing. [/QUOTE]
