Baking stuff sounds a bit dodgy.  Sounds like a recipe (boom, boom) for
melted plastic and components etc.  My top-tip is to put wet electronic
equipment in the airing cupboard [1].  My Pentax SLR camera got a soaking a
few years ago in a canoe that supposedly had water-tight bulkheads.  The
camera was naturally stone dead when I tried to turn it on.  A couple of
days in the airing cupboard and it was working perfectly again.

[1]  For those of you who are not familiar with the term airing cupboard, it
is the cupboard in an English house that typically contains the hot water
tank.  Shelves above the tank are usually used for storing towels, linen and
ironing etc.  It's nice and warm and dry in there you see.
