Can Rice Save A PS Vita Dropped In Water? Extended Version

I love you videos. You have inspired me to try fixing electronics instead of just simply tossing them. I am a cancer survivor and had one of my lungs removed and I can’t do anything physically so sitting at a desk trying to breathe life back into something feels right. I hope to one day have half the knowledge and patience you have at fixing these things. Thank you so much

Its been almost a year since I sent my vita to him, glad he has a longer recording of repairing it! My vita was the 2000

I always did basic and minor cleaning for my consoles and controllers such as taking the shells off but watching him inspired me to try and start my own cleaning and refurbishing business via these videos he's been there for me in hard times such as when my dad died in 2021 my dad was the main supporter of my hobby turned dream and when he died I all but gave up but I continued watching these videos and it's keeping me going so thanks man for everything.

Two PS Vita's saved from landfill, awesome job!

There is a bad flaw with The PS Vita 1000 Models they require a Battery to turn on and plugging in a charger with no battery will not turn it on. That is a problem with 1000 models because when the battery drops below a specific charge you get the "Orange Light of Death" which means a Orange Blinking light when you try to charge it and it goes nowhere and does not charge. Sometimes just plugging it to charge will bring it back, but a few times it does no charge and you need to jump start the battery before it can charge. The best way to try and fix it is to try to enter Safe Mode (When charging Press and Hold the R button + PS Button + Power button) and it will force it to try to turn it on and will usually show an empty battery symbol on the screen and then leave it to charge for a while. For me it usually always turn on. If after that it still does not charge then the battery needs replacing. This trick worked on all my PS Vitas that had this issue.

Nice, success on both must feel good!

You are looking alot better!!!! hope you are doing well, Great video

I love this channel. I been watching your videos for awhile now. The real question is..... is there a perfect amount of liquid damage? 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😅😅😅😅😅

Nice! ❤️ Also nice to see that you are recovering. I wish i had but they are too expensive in the portuguese market.

Love ur psp and vita vids

I deal with a lot of batteries (repair also electronic stuff). You can kinda "by feel" see if the battery is good, but its better to buy a tester tool that is capable of charging and discharging the battery to assess the health. The best ones will give you a capacity reading (real capacity left) , internal resistance, self discharge rate, etc. W ith that you can determine if a battery is good, normally my standard is 90% or more of the original capacity and low self discharge rate is a good battery, otherwise to the special recycle bin.

Love your channel bro

Rice doesn't do crap, desiccant is cheap on Amazon and will actualy do something

Nice video has usual. What product did you use on the ultrasonic bath? thanks.

I know this videos is going to encourage me to open up my xbox and clean it !

I still have the OG white assassin creed bundle one, with the box and all love this handheld just got me a SD2Vita so I can have way more space for stuff, I probably should have done this ages ago, but better than never.

Rice is a total myth and does not work but I know you know this my friend! Glad to see you looking well!
