I can do the same thing with some rice in a bowl, and I get to re-use the rice. Way cheaper than what that machine will cost. I have done this four times with the wife's and the daughter's phones with 100% success.

Meh...I've had good luck using highly concentrated alcohol to get the water out, and then dry air to get the alcohol out.

Oh hell....I'm glad i wasn't drinking anything...

I will show this to my wife, who happens to be Asian, and see what she thinks about it.

Let us hope that the phone didn't fall into the gas station toilet first when you reuse that rice for dinner.......

The little "chamber" he puts it in is literally a presto pressure cooker. He must have just put it in a pelican case to make it look all cool, and a bulkhead fitting to some tubing which is hooked up to an air pump. Creates a vacuum in there and voila!

Use a food vacuum sealer, if you have one. 90+% Alcohol does the trick.
