Hello Tino,

well seems to be pretty good to me:

design capacity:         43200 mWh
last full capacity:      37390 mWh

Now I would have to ask the ebay seller of the new batteries for his ACPI 
battery output... well I think I will stick with my battery as I do not 
use it that often anyway.

Did not try what can be yielded by a full recharge as it is quite warm and 
thus would reduce battery lifetime.

Regards,
