What's your full charge capacity on your 15" MBP?


i noticed full charge capacity mac varies. on first charge indicated 6580mah, on second charge 6685mah(which software indicated able charge capacity), after unplugged bit says full charge capacity 6850mah. i'm planning calibrate battery on discharge.

experience this?
 

my indicated battery capacity (15" i7) has been increasing week. started @ 69xx , 7150 mah. nameplate capacity on battery listed 7700 mah, interesting see how far in goes.

battery chemistry a123 li-polymer. these picky batteries, , cells can ruined if discharge below 3.1v/cell, or if cells unbalanced. guess battery controller conservative, , explains difference between nameplate , measured capacities. controller being careful keep each cell above threshold voltage.
