Rechargeable batteries in the washing machine?
joseph_wickline asked:
I accidentaly left 4 rechargeable “AAA” batteries in my pocket and they went through the washing machine. I found them and pulled them out before I put my clothes in the dryer. Will they be okay? I just got just bought them a few days ago.They were fully charged when they went in the washing machine. Thanks in advance!

They probably OK, unless it was on super hot. The batteries contain liquid chemicals that are sealed in, so if the seal didn’t break (and ruin you clothes), they should still work. You should try charging one or two first, just to see if they still hold a charge. If so, they’re good to go…
