Avoid These Water Eject Mistakes: Myths, Myths, Myths

Myth #1: “Rice Fixes Everything”

Uncooked rice absorbs ambient humidity, not targeted droplets. Worse, starch dust slips into speaker grilles and cakes onto the diaphragm. Skip the bowl and go straight to Water Eject, which physically pushes droplets out instead of waiting days for passive evaporation.

Myth #2: “Crank the Volume to 100%”

Maxing out the speaker triggers clipping and may tear the membrane. Water Eject already calibrates amplitude so the sweep stays within safe headroom. If you need extra power, focus on positioning—tilt the speaker downward and let gravity assist.

Myth #3: “Hair Dryers Are Faster”

Heat plus forced air degrades adhesives and introduces uneven expansion. If you must use external airflow, choose a room-temperature fan that circulates air gently while Water Eject handles the targeted vibration.

Myth #4: “Only a Single Frequency Works”

Single tones create standing waves that trap droplets in predictable nodes. Water Eject’s sweep covers the 150–330 Hz range to destabilize droplets regardless of where they sit on the diaphragm. Think of it as shaking a rug from multiple angles rather than one stiff yank.

Myth #5: “If the Speaker Still Sounds Muffled, It’s Toast”

Residual droplets often hide behind mesh or inside the acoustic chamber. Run a third sweep, wait ten minutes, and repeat. Still no luck? Pair the tool with silica gel packets or a dehumidifier cabinet. Most speakers bounce back once corrosion is prevented.

Quick Reference Table

Wrong Move	Impact	Do This Instead
Rice soaking	Starch dust + slow drying	Immediate Water Eject sweeps
Max volume blasting	Distortion + heater risk	Follow guided sweep levels
Hot air gun	Warped plastics	Room-temp airflow + gravity

Staying myth-aware protects your device and accelerates recovery. Share this checklist with friends who still dunk phones in grains—it’s time to retire the rice bag legend.
