Abstract
Methods and apparatuses for drying and charging electronic devices are disclosed. An exemplary method comprises: generating a first air flow, using a first pressure-generating device, through a first air path connecting a drying chamber, the first pressure-generating device, a first heat sink, and a moisture-collecting device; activating a thermoelectric system thermally connected to a thermal transfer device, wherein the thermoelectric system has a first polarity; generating a second air flow, using a second pressure-generating device, through a second air path connecting the second pressure-generating device and a second heat sink; generating an electrical current, by engaging the portable electronic device and a power source; generating a third air flow, using the first pressure-generating device, through the first air path; activating the thermoelectric system, wherein the thermoelectric system has a second polarity; and generating a fourth air flow, using the second pressure-generating device, through the second air path.
