It isn't a good idea to do that with a non-waterproof controller, since tap water does contain impurities that could potentially short something from the charge that could be left in the capacitors. Notice that I did put "pure" water :cool:. But if you had to, then unplugging everything first would be the best thing to do.

Is that AP physics? I don't think it would be. Freshmen year I took Biology, and last year (sophomore) I took chemistry. Right now I'm in AP Physics, and that class is quite a brainful! Next year I will take AP Chemistry and AP Biology as well.
