    Hello again :)

    I bought what i thought was a 6600 mah battery for my A150 , but in windows xp the battery monitor is suggesting its more like a 7200 mah . Is it just me , the battery monitor or have i got a higher capacity battery for no extra cost ?

    Have a look for yourselves .....

    You are confusing current with power. Your battery monitor is reporting milliwatt-hours, not milliamp-hours.

    Your battery monitor is reporting ~73,000mWH.
    Your nominal battery voltage is 11.1V.
    Current = Power / Voltage.

    Current = 73000 / 11.1 = ~6,600.

    Your battery is genuinely rated at 6,600mAH.
