BTW, here's what this looks like:

This graph shows the voltage over the battery terminals of a GTA02
battery. The battery starts in cut-off. A power supply delivers 3.5V
through a 1kOhm resistor for 58s. Then it switches off for 2s and we
see the voltage drop. This repeats until the battery snaps out of
cut-off and begins the normal charging process.
