Amp-hr capacity purports to be an indication of the amount of charge
(not energy) that you can put into a cell and expect to get back out
assuming defined end-point voltages.  It doesn't really work well as a
measure of the ability of a cell to store energy but we're stuck with it
for historical reasons.

Even for new cells measured amp-hr capacity is extremely sensitive to
the charge and discharge rates used.  This will vary with the size of
the cell.  For the used-up cells you are working with it will also
depend on the history of each cell.  You cannot expect any
reproducibility here.
