Abstract
A kit for drying an electronic device includes a sealed storage container having a vacuum chamber that has been depressurized to a partial vacuum, and a drying container operably coupled to the storage container. The drying container includes a desiccant chamber containing a desiccant and a main chamber in fluid communication with the desiccant chamber. The main chamber is configured for housing an electronic device. According to one method, the drying container is loaded with an electronic device inside the main chamber and the container is sealed. Then, the storage container is fluidly coupled to the drying container. The fluid coupling between the storage container and the drying container causes the pressure in the main chamber to be at a partial vacuum, which promotes water removal from the electronic device and transfer of removed water into the desiccant.
