Sounds like an ad in the making - "takes a licking and keeps on...
storing." Or maybe charging? Nawww... ;^)
Solid-state electronics are amazingly durable. Li-Ion batteries need
to be well-sealed and environmentally protected because of the
explosion risk if they're over-charged, so they're usually pretty hardy too.

So, this morning, I took a fresh pair of slacks from the closet. I
was putting my belt through the loops and found something in the
pocket. It was my leather pouch in which I store two SD cards and a
fresh Leica M8 battery. Sure enough, they had been washed and then
dried in the electric dryer.
I checked the SD cards and they write new images. I put the battery
on charge, and after an hour, the yellow light goes out, I try it
and it powers up the camera.
Don't try this at home, kids. Leave experiments like this to
untrained professionals. ;-)
