I set my adjustable power supply at about 4.5V and I connect it directly to the battery terminals for just a second, then measure the voltage on the battery. If the battery voltage is still zero, I repeat. Usually after a few "shocks" the battery comes out of its internal under-voltage protection. I understand that GTA01 batteries have no hysteresis and need just one "shock" (in fact Werner said "one electron" I think) to come out of under-voltage protection. I understand that GTA02 batteries have hysteresis and require more coulombs injected before they will recover. Please explain, as I am writing this all up and want to explain it properly.
