40 back, we will. If the voltage is clamped low and there is no other damage, we may end up waiting a long time for a cell to "open", hopefully not as long as for AO-07. ..or it may happen today. No success for even weeks or months does not mean that we won't eventually be successful.
On a more practical note, could there be some sort of failsafe "battery went phut so disconnect it" device? I'm guessing a perfectly ordinary inline fuse would be too simple, but perhaps some sort of mechanical latch that would just pop the battery terminal if it lost power would work.
