Battery watt hours 102%

Post by Disil07 »

Hello. I want to know detailed information of my pc, so I've been messing around with information utilities in terminal, like inxi. While I was looking at battery information (with command inxi -B), I found something weird:
condition: 42.4/41.6 Wh (102%)
Is this normal? I have googled about it, most people have issues about the watt hours reduced from 100%, rather than over 100%. What should I do? If i need to recalibrate, how to do that?

This is result of inxi -Fxxxrz:

I'm thinking I have seen that before, so I would suggest not to worry about that.
