Phone-drying technology available at Athens Verizon store

The Verizon store on U.S. 72 in Athens is now offering a service to remove moisture from wet cell phones, tables and wearable devices.

The Redux drying technology offered by Revive Electronics LLC at A Wireless stores. According to a press release, the process has been successful in recovering devices damaged by many perils, including toilet water, soapy washing machines, puddles, mud, tomato soup, beer, wine and more.

“We are excited to partner with Revive Electronics and offer the Redux technology to our customers,” said John Stratton, CEO of A Wireless, in the release. “This partnership not only allows us to save our customers money by eliminating the cost to replace entire devices, but also enables them to recover their data, and save potentially irreplaceable information, such as contacts, photos, videos and more.”

Redux customers pay a non-refundable diagnostic fee of $10 to attempt the revival process. The cost for a successful recovery of a basic phone or a data device is $50, while a smartphone, tablet or wearable is $90. A discount is provided to customers who have a monthly device insurance offered by the wireless service provider.

For customers who want a more proactive approach, Redux is available through a discounted membership program for $29.99. Each membership provides two dry attempts for up to 24 months at no additional cost and offers a limited money back guarantee on the recovery outcome.
