Methods and apparatuses for drying electronic devices

An apparatus at least partially comprised in a drying chamber for drying an electronic device, the apparatus comprising:

• a moisture-reducing device, wherein the moisture-reducing device absorbs moisture from surrounding air, wherein the moisture-reducing device is received by a drying chamber, wherein, based on receiving the moisture-reducing device in the drying chamber, a first air flow is generated through a first air channel connecting the drying chamber and the moisture-reducing device, wherein the drying chamber is sealable;
• a printed circuit board providing a base for a first circuit and a second circuit, wherein:
• the first circuit comprises at least one sensor enabled to determine a first humidity of a first air, a second humidity of a second air, and a third humidity of a third air, wherein the first air is inside the drying chamber and outside the apparatus, wherein the second air is inside the apparatus, and
• the second circuit comprises a temperature-measuring device and one or more surface mount resistors enabled to heat the moisture-reducing device;
• at least one controller connected to or associated with at least one of:
• the first circuit and the second circuit;
• at least one computing device connected to the at least one controller to provide at least one instruction, wherein the at least one instruction is executable to:
• route a first moisture from an electronic device to the moisture-reducing device,
• determine, using the at least one sensor, the first humidity of the first air,
• determine, using the at least one sensor, the second humidity of the second air,
• execute, based on the first humidity and the second humidity, a first computing operation, thereby generating a first result,
• pause, based on the first result, the route the first moisture from the electronic device to the moisture-reducing device,
• route the first moisture from the moisture-reducing device to an exterior of the drying chamber,
• determine, using the at least one sensor, the third humidity of the third air,
• execute, based on the third humidity, a second computing operation, thereby generating a second result, and
• pause, based on the second result, the route the first moisture from the moisture-reducing device to the exterior of the drying chamber, and
• a first structure enclosing the moisture-reducing device and the printed circuit board, wherein:
• the first structure comprises a separator between the first air and the second air, and
• the first structure comprises a first aperture permitting the first air flow.
