    Note to self.. Next Rat Rack Build

    So I was finishing up my new rack today. The last thing I had to do was fill the water reservoir. I used a old 18gal Rubbermaid tub. So I was using my phone as a flashlight and a shop-vac to get all the small dirt and dust that has gathered so they wouldn't clog my valves. Well I completely forgot my phone was sitting in the tub when I started filling it up. After about 3 pitchers of water I looked in to see how full it was getting and there my phone was all lit up at the bottom. It did look cool.
    It is taken apart sitting in a bowl of rice at the moment.

    So note to self don't leave phone in reservoir before filling it.

    I am sorry to have a chuckle at your expense, I do hope your phone dries out though

    When I first took it out of the rice it wasn't working. So I put it back in overnight and this morning it turned right on.
