I’ve cleaned/sanitized and let it dry and everything. The audio seems fine and I’m playing that audio track that dislodges the water with sound.

Anything else I should do? Rice etc?

    I’m a repair tech and all you really can do is try to shake as much water out as possible and blow as much water out as possible. It’s not just water that’s a problem, it’s minerals are too. The largest priority after liquid damage is to remove as much of the liquid, and when possible, rinsing individual parts with distilled water thoroughly. You do not have that option with air pods so your only bet is to attempt to rid as much water as you can. Afterwards just run a fan next to it in a dry place.

        Whenever I’m passing a grate or manhole, I always hold onto my phone and keys. Nothing’s ever happened, I’m just way too paranoid
