How to Fix Water Damage on a PSP Battery

Electronics are worthless when they are wet. Water can turn even the most expensive and fun device into a water-logged paperweight. There is a simple household fix that can remove all of the water in the device and allow you to use it once again. Dry rice is ultra-absorbent and helps bring your electronics back from the dead. This even works with PSP batteries.

Things You'll Need

Blow-dryer
4 cups uncooked rice

Instructions

- 1
  Remove the battery from your PSP if you have not yet done so. Place the PSP aside.
- 2
  Use a blow-dryer to dry the surface of the battery and push the water out of the thin crevasses along the edge of the battery.
- 3
  Pour 4 cups of dry, uncooked rice into a medium-size bowl. Place the PSP battery into the bowl of rice, completely submerged. Allow the rice to absorb the remaining liquid in the battery for 24 hours.
- 4
  Remove the PSP battery from the rice and use a dry cloth to gently brush off any residue. Place the PSP battery back into the PSP and turn it on. It is now completely fixed.
