Default Battery capacity Test for M8 battery

Few weeks ago I have ordered 2x HK Battery which many people said good and bad.
I asked my friend to modify my old trusty charger Powerex MH-C777Plus-II charger which I used to charge a lot of nicad battery and lihium eg. Nikon D1H battery, Sony camcorder, Phaseone battery etc. to connect M8 battery.

Please find the attached picture.

The reason I modify the connector of this charger because it is able to discharge and recharge automatic by self adjust voltage and show the capacity by digit.

I have 2 Leica original batteries and 2 HK batteries.
After run the test twice in each battery. I can conclude that.
1. Each battery has slightly capacity.
2. Leica battery both has over 1900 mAh. 1st ~2500, 2nd ~ 2300
3. HK battery 1st ~ 1700, 2nd ~ 2000

I don't know about the battery life. Time will tell.
It seems Leica has better capacity than HK slightly but big price different.
