Mine fell in to the auto-top off bucket and promptly died. Thank goodness it was pure fresh water, so all I did was unscrew the casing and point a hair dryer at the circuit board until I was sure it was dry.

6 months later, the thing works like a bloody charm. I'll never run a tank without one.

I'd screw it to the wall next time though...
Hmmmm, mine never came with adhesive, I have actual brackets, tracking and all the accessories to mount it nicely. I guess they changed it from when I bought mine a few years back.
