I had an iPad 3 stuck in a low-battery reboot loop like this for hours once upon a time. I eventually got the idea to force it into DFU mode and was finally able to let it charge long enough to complete its boot process.

I have likewise had the same situation with a Kindle Fire and a Huawei Watch, in both cases I was glad I had rooted them and thus had a much easier path to boot to recovery than I would have stock.
