Every time I do a full discharge/recharge, I lose about 4 minutes on the meter. I did partial discharges for about 6 months without any change in the 100% meter time, then I did a full discharge (by accident, didn't realize it was unplugged :) and immediately lost 4 more minutes. How long have you had the battery? Maybe the behavior changes with age? -- John H. Kim jokim@mit.edu
