Evaluating Battery Condition

Batteries are evaluated on two objective measures: their full charge capacity and condition.

POOR: 0-2000 mAh OR the battery states Service Battery or Replace Now
FAIR: 2000-4000 mAh OR the battery states Replace Soon or Check Battery
GOOD: 4000-11000 mAh AND the battery states Normal

* Bulging: If a battery is missing or bulging it will need to be replaced and should be marked as POOR.
