That is just one ****ed-up bit of design if something as simple as a

would make no difference - the battery will eventually die (permanently)
even if not connected since it will self discharge.

But it would buy some extra time and an auxiliary battery (just a
small one) could sound a low-charge alarm


With all this talk about batteries what about the gasses from a battery
while it's being charged or have they found a way round that?

There are no gases from a normal lithium cell charge.
