I just leave them in there until I need 'em. By the time I pull 'em out, they feel about the same as when they were new. But.... it's not like they are just sitting in a pool of water. I pour in just enough to do the trick. If I get too much water in there, then the next day I will pour out the excess.
Not sure how many times you can do it. But, it works for me.
How many days would you leave them in the ziplock bag?

The time will vary depending on your ambient conditions. When I lived on the East Coast with higher humidity it would take a day or two. Now living at a higher elevation with less humidity it takes up to a week. When all the crystals are soft inside, they're ready. Good luck.
So I can attest to the fact that yes, you CAN indeed recharge a Boveda pack.
Note: some that I've added we're pretty much drained of any moisture.... And they came right back in a matter of days
Don't know about soaking them directly in distilled water, but they can be recharged by placing them in a ziplock bag or container with a small glass of distilled water.

This works great - just did two last week.

Will add that I’ve put the packs inside a container with distilled water and at first things were fine but after a few dunks, the outer paper / membrane started to get funky so definitely don’t recommend that method.
