Linear, linear, linear. It's very much unlike nicads where they have a high
peak initially, taper off to a flat plateau, then just drop dead. These
caps are very much linear in their discharge curve.

Thanks for replying.
One additional question: would this also be the case if the cap is
overcharged (to around 3.7v)?
