I've managed to 'kick start' error reading AA/AAA batteries using a
cheap 'dumb' charger. Batteries seem to recover fine. I think they
discharge to such a point that the smart charger can't do anything with
them?

In fact I've successfully done this when the smart charger failed with a
car battery recently.

I have two (sometimes three) chargers of varying degrees of smartness,
they all use deltaV to detect full charge. I often find that some
batteries won't start charging in one charger but will start in
another, the trouble is that there's no consistency as to which
charger works.
