    Design capacity is 65.52Wh, but every 2 times I charge it or so, I notice the full charge capacity goes up, and it charges to the new full charge capacity. With about 9 cycles of charging, I'm up to 71.51Wh? Is there any reason to be cautious? If not, anyone know what the true capacity of this the 7 cell battery is?

    I thought I had heard that the new batteries were learning batteries and Adjusted power output based on usage patterns. I could be way off of course. Maybe you changed your usage patterns?
