  If that is from the battery-report.html file generated by 'powercfg
/batteryreport', then that's a general Windows utility, not an
Acer-specific one.

  OTOH, it reports a nice round number for 'DESIGN CAPACITY', so I think
that is indeed the documented design capacity, instead of a calculated/
'fabricated' one.

  Can you give us the name of the utility which you used?
