[QUOTE="WayneF, post: 317723, member: 12496"] I use a Maha C9000 charger too, it's great. But we cannot compare batteries by how much charge goes into them (it is not an efficient process, more always goes in then can come out). We can charge them forever, but we can only discharge them for so long. :) You should be testing/comparing cells using the chargers Discharge cycle, actually measuring battery capacity, the capacity that the cell can hold and deliver during discharge. Capacity possibly might be restored and improve somewhat after repeating once. In fact, the charger also offers the Initialize cycle (takes a couple of days) which should restore old cells too.
