Then I sprayed in a generic water dispersant and shook it out - again about 5 cycles.

I put it in the sun to dry out for a couple of hours.

Then I turned on the Aura HD and it did not work. So I plugged it in to recharge and it immediately turned on.

It was a bit irregular for the next hour or so, but since then it has run perfectly - at least 6 months to date.

I did the same with an electronic device (Blushield) that went through a warm wash in a front loader. That turned out fine too.
What is "meths"?
