I found this link on another forum:

I was very sceptical, and worried about a battery blowing up in my face. I had 2 dead very old 9.6 volt batteries for my Makita cordless drill. I do not own a welder, but it was said on the forum that jumper cables off of a car battery would do the same thing. I have a jump starter that I used to spark the batteries. One is perfect, the other is about half power. I may try to spark it again.
DO THIS AT YOUR OWN RISK!!
I couldn't believe this battery that hadn't even been on a charger for months, because I gave up on it works so well after a charge. I have used it to drive about 30 screws so far and drill a few pilot holes, and it is still going strong.
