That seems to be a very grey area. The OP didn't say whether there were
any electronics involved. If there is, I'll ask a minor deity in the EMC
world for an opinion. The battery by itself doesn't have the electronics
energised, so my view is that the electronics is effectively part of the
product in which the battery is installed to be charged.
