SAFELY, EFFICIENTLY, AND EFFECTIVELY
REMOVE MOISTURE FROM MOBILE PHONES
MobileDryer is a small, portable, innovative, moisture absorbing recovery tool designed to “dry out” mobile phones that come into contact with water or other liquids.
700% MORE EFFECTIVE THAN RICE
300% MORE EFFECTIVE THAN SILICA GEL
WORKS ON “WATER RESISTANT” PHONES
MobileDryer also works with other small electronics, including:
headphones
fitness trackers
electronic car keys
watches
handheld games
two-way radios
hearing aids
electronic cigarettes
portable chargers
Regardless of the manufacturer or the model, modern phones are water resistant but not waterproof. This means that they can and will be damaged by exposer to water or other liquids.
Newer phone models are splash, water, and dust resistant and are tested under controlled laboratory conditions. Splash, water, and dust resistance are not permanent conditions and resistance decreases as a result of normal wear. Most importantly, liquid damage is not covered under any manufacturer’s warranty.
Specifics of the splash, water, and dust resistivity rating vary by manufacturer and model. Here are links to the water resistivity articles for Apple and Samsung.
To increase the likelihood of successful recovery, POWER OFF IMMEDIATELY! Do not attempt to use the electronic device, in any way. The device may appear to be functioning properly but if moisture is inside the device, using it may cause permanent damage.
Do not take any chances…use MobileDryer immediately!
INSTRUCTIONS:
1. POWER OFF IMMEDIATELY
2. Remove all accessories &
uninstall battery (if possible)
3. Towel dry visible moisture
4. Place phone inside & seal
5. Leave sealed for 48-72 hours
6. Remove phone & power on
Although MobileDryer will remove moisture from electronics, prevention of liquid damage cannot be guaranteed.
Modern, low voltage electronics, such as mobile phones, do not “short circuit” immediately upon contact with liquids. Instead, tiny moisture droplets work their way into the device and onto the circuit board. These droplets then act as “bridges”, re-routing voltage erratically. This new, incorrect path the voltage travels is what causes electronics to malfunction or fail completely. Also, moisture within an electronic device may cause corrosion over time leading to the failure of critical components. Therefore, if power is disabled and all of the moisture is removed from a mobile phone before power is restored it will very likely work again. Unfortunately, liquid will adhere to tiny areas where hand drying is ineffective.
The most common approach for attempting to save wet mobile phones is the “rice method”. However, rice has a low capacity for atmospheric absorption so it will absorb liquid on the outside of the mobile phone but may not fully absorb moisture on the inside before the rice reaches its absorption capacity. And heating a mobile phone to the temperature required to dry out moisture will easily cause damage to the phone’s memory and also melt plastics.
MobileDryer consists of sealed packets of Molecular Sieve heat-sealed within a re-sealable moisture-barrier bag. Molecular Sieve is a pharmaceutical grade desiccant used to absorb water in static environments. Operating on a molecular level trapping absorbed moisture, Molecular Sieve can absorb water up to 21% of its own weight and reduce atmospheric humidity to 1% RH.
Q Does MobileDryer really work?
A Yes! However, successful recovery of wet electronics cannot be guaranteed by MobileDryer or any retailer.
Q Is MobileDryer safe for phones?
A Yes! MobileDryer simply absorbs moisture and will not damage the phone electrically or mechanically.
Q Does MobileDryer work with all phones?
A Yes! MobileDryer works with any phone brand and other small electronics.
Q Can MobileDryer be used days after a phone gets wet?
A No! MobileDryer must be used immediately after a phone gets wet.
Q Can MobileDryer be used more than once?
A No! MobileDryer is designed for one-time use.
Q Does MobileDryer really need to be sealed for 48-72 hours?
A Yes! In fact, the longer you leave MobileDryer sealed the better.
Q What size phones fit inside MobileDryer?
A MobileDryer is designed to fit phones up to 6 inches tall.
Q What if my phone doesn’t fit inside MobileDryer?
A Put your phone in MobileDryer and put everything in a ziplock bag.
