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 an electronic device is received by the 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, and wherein the drying chamber is sealable;
• a printed circuit board providing a base for a circuit, wherein the circuit comprises at least one sensor enabled to determine a first humidity of a first air and a second humidity of a second air, wherein the first air is inside the drying chamber and outside the apparatus, and wherein the second air is inside the apparatus;
• at least one controller connected to or associated with the circuit;
• at least one computing device connected to or associated with 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 the electronic device to the moisture-reducing device,
• determine the first humidity of the first air,
• determine the second humidity of the second air, and
• initiate execution of a reactivation operation associated with the moisture-reducing device, wherein the reactivation operation is executable to:
• route the first moisture from the moisture-reducing device to an exterior of the drying chamber, and
• generate, based on routing the first moisture from the moisture-reducing device to an exterior of the drying chamber, a humidity response graph.

A method comprising:

• receiving a moisture-reducing apparatus in a drying chamber, wherein the drying chamber is sealable;
• generating, based on the receiving the moisture-reducing apparatus in the drying chamber, a first air flow through a first air channel connecting the drying chamber and the moisture-reducing apparatus, wherein:
• the moisture-reducing apparatus is at least partially comprised in the drying chamber,
• the drying chamber receives a portable electronic device holding a first moisture, and
• the moisture-reducing apparatus comprises at least one sensor enabled to determine a first humidity of a first air inside the drying chamber and outside the moisture-reducing apparatus and a second humidity of a second air inside the moisture-reducing apparatus;
• routing the first moisture from the portable electronic device to the moisture-reducing apparatus;
• determining, using the at least one sensor, the first humidity of the first air;
• determining, using the at least one sensor, the second humidity of the second air;
• pausing the routing the first moisture from the portable electronic device to the moisture-reducing apparatus;
• initiating execution of, based on the second humidity of the second air, a reactivation operation associated with the moisture-reducing apparatus, wherein the reactivation operation comprises:
• generating a second air flow, through a second air channel connecting the moisture-reducing apparatus and an exterior of the drying chamber,
• routing the first moisture from the moisture-reducing apparatus to the exterior of the drying chamber, and
• generating, based on the routing the first moisture from the moisture-reducing apparatus to the exterior of the drying chamber, a humidity response graph;
• and
• pausing the routing the first moisture from the moisture-reducing apparatus to the exterior of the drying chamber.
