+We are going to implement a TI-classic charging indicator LED controlled by
+Iota LEDC; the circuit is nothing more than a LED in series with a resistor,
+connected between the VCHG rail and Iota LEDC terminal.  The LED will probably

+is USB +5V rather than VBAT, there should be no issues with LED brightness
+variation.
