In retrospect, the value may be actually correct. This parameter tells you the actual amount of charge the battery can hold in relation to the design capacity. If this is indeed a new (battery) system, the first can be *higher* than the latter, depending on the rate of discharge that was used in measuring the actual capacity.

This looks way too high for a 12V battery and too low for a 24V battery (it could be a 3 x 6V battery system, but I have never seen such a configuration). Can you measure the battery voltage? I still believe it would be better to create a separate subdriver for CyberPower, if only for the reason that it is easier to maintain if each VendorID has it's own subdriver.
