Following up: The ESR measures 10-11 ohms (last digit can't make up its mind). Peak charge current from a 5v 0.5ohm source hits 480ma (AVO 8 on 1A range) before rapidly dropping to zero. Four hours later the terminal voltage is still 5V (Advance 10Mopv meter).

That's about half of the value I measured.

You have a good one with 10 ohms. The 10 - 15 year old ones had much higher ESR even when new but still low leakage.
