My exposure maxx d has got water inside, to the point of pooling in the lense, any tips on how I might dry it out?

I am still surprised a bit of rain got in and potentially killed it tbh

If its out of warranty and Exposure wont help then just unscrew the end cap off the back of the light and put it to dry on a radiator. Then re screw the back on applying some silicon lube if you have any. You may find the rubber o-ring has gone crusty and split causing the original leek.

I left my Exposure Race on the bars one day and it poured all day long, I think water might have got in the smart port (I lost the wee rubber cap a long time ago) as the light wasn't working at all. Out of warranty so I was pretty worried. Put it in a freezer bag with some uncooked rice, sealed the bag so it was air tight and left it 24hrs. Working perfectly the next day and still is now.
