The Swaai Save-A-Phone system rescues portable electronic devices of all sorts, including mobile phones, MP3 players, and PDAs, from the perils of water and moisture. Whether the device was submerged, or suffered exposure to a high humidity environment, the Save-A-Phone system uses the power of desiccation to pull moisture out. If all goes well, your essential device should be up and running again anywhere from 4 to 72 hours later.

The Save-A-Phone system consists of a Mylar and polyethylene bag and 2 Drying Agent Packs (DAP) which seal in your portable device - slowly drawing out the moisture. A color indicator on the bag lets you know when your phone, handheld game, or other device is completely dry and ready to be powered up again. Follow the step-by-step directions for the best and most effective removal of moisture and for the best possible outcome.

Saves Electronic Devices
Whether it's a mobile phone, digital camera, or other portable electronic device that's gotten wet Save-A-Phone uses the power of desiccation to remove moisture and prevent otherwise certain catastrophe
The Save-A-Phone System
The Save-A-Phone system consists of a reusable airtight Mylar foil and clear polyethylene bag, two Save-A-Phone Drying Agent Packs (DAP), and the color indicator. The Save-A-Phone 'desiccation chamber' (the bag) is made from Mylar and polyethylene because these materials possess a very low Moisture Vapor Transmission Rate (MVTR)
Who Can Benefit From It
Among the numerous professionals whose jobs keep them in and around water, Save-A-Phone cites commercial divers, fishermen, and on-the-water rescue crews. Anyone who's around water or high humidity and moisture can benefit from the drying powers of Save-A-Phone though. The drying system's makers further cite the effectiveness of the Save-A-Phone by pointing out that the US Military uses Mylar bags - an integral part of the Save-A-Phone system - for transporting their sensitive electronic equipment worldwide
How It Works
  • The electronic device has gotten wet - dropped, sprayed, or otherwise adversely affected by water or a high moisture climate
  • Open the device, if it can be opened, to remove a battery (or sim card in the case of a cell phone). If the device is unable to be opened, Save-A-Phone will still work with the battery in place
  • Stand the device in an antennae-up orientation until you are able to safely begin the Save-A-Phone recovery process
  • Cut the top off of the foil bag packaging along the dotted line with a scissors
  • Remove the Save-A-Phone bag with the two Drying Agent Packs from within the outer foil bag
  • Open the zip seal along the top of the Save-A-Phone bag
  • Do not rip open the Drying Agent Packs
  • Place the device, battery, and sim card (if applicable) inside the Save-A-Phone bag (larger bag) along with the two Drying Agent Packs
  • Carefully close the zip seal along the top of the Save-A-Phone bag. Make sure it is completely sealed. As the drying agent pulls the water out of your device the moisture indicator will turn from blue to pink - this can take a couple of hours
  • Place the Save-A-Phone bag (with contents inside) in a relatively warm place (68-80°F)
  • RELAX and let the Save-A-Phone system do its thing
  • The drying process can take as little as 4 hours or as long as 72 hours. However, it is recommended to keep the device in the bag for at least 12 hours
  • When the moisture indicator turns back to blue it is most-likely safe to open the bag, remove the contents, and replace the battery and sim card (if applicable), and power the device back up
  • If you replace the battery and power up your device and it seems to work fine, then BACK UP ALL DATA IMMEDIATELY!
  • If you replace the battery and the device does not power up, the battery may be irreparably damaged and will need to be replaced, or the device is permanently damaged and will need to be sent to the manufacturer's approved service center
