How do you get water out of your phone?

How do you get the phone out of the water?

  • My cordless phone dropped in my kitchen sink full of water. I know that I can get shocked if I don't take it out correctly, so how do you get a cordless phone out of water without killing myself?

  • Answer:

    Use something wooden to remove it from the water. Wood doesn't conduct electricity, so you won't get shocked. Or, you could use the wood to pull the plug on the sink, then just wait for there to be no water.

There is not enough voltage in there to do you any harm, however, that phone is probably shot. Fish it out and take out the battery. Shake out any water. Then leave it vertical with the battery end down and let the water drain for a couple of days. It may eventually dry out but chances are you shorted the battery. My advise would be to go to Radio Shack and buy a new one. A replacement battery can cost about $15.00 and you can get a new phone on sale for about $30 or less depending on the features. Good luck!

It's a cordless so there isn't much juice in the phone! It only has batteries which can't cause you any harm. How did it fall in, did you drop it when you tripped over the cord?

get a big plastic spoon and go fishing --- the corded phone is the one to be cautious with and the battery operated phone is not a problem ---- but you will need to buy a new phone NOW ..._____

Its ok I dropped one in the bathtub with me once. You will not die the battery isnt strong enough. Just reach in and pick it up. But you will need a new phone now.

It shouldn't shock you, just grab it, but if u stilla re afraid, try getting a bunch of towels to soak up the water, or find something that you can stick in there and grap it with like a little dinosaur thing if u ahve kids!
