The loss in capacity was recoverable by cycling again
at lower current. I had this problem with cells I bought
about 1 1/2 years ago, maybe they've changed.

What happened was that I was charging at 330mah, and
over time, it was only taking one hour to charge them
at this rate. Took the pack to the store and they confirmed
capacity was 330 to 360mah by cycling them a few times.

I then discharged at C/5 and charged at C/10 and after
a few cycles they recovered back to near full capacity.

This was strange, as the peak voltage was the same during
this entire process, only the capacity was affected.
