2 New ifixit battery, 3rd charge cicle and already 95% design capacity?
Received ifixit battery yesterday and installed it today. Started calibration as recommended. Charged to 100% and left charging for an extra couple of hours. Used Mac to discharge it. When battery was at 1% it shut down instead of going to sleep. Reset the SMC. Turned it back on and now I'm charging again to 100%.
What is concerning is that after I installed the brand new battery yesterday full charge capacity was
Full Charge Capacity (mAh): 6160
now, after one day it's
Full Charge Capacity (mAh): 5749
and coconut battery says it's already at 95% design capacity. What gives?
Update (03/16/23)
Coconut batttery reading of the replacement battery you provided after firs calibration cycle and shutdown instad of going to sleep
Is this a good question?

Update: discharged battery again and again did not go to sleep but shut off when battery was at 2% charge

after 3rd calibration once again no sleep at 2% and full charge capacity is now at
Full Charge Capacity (mAh): 5716
so less than it was after the 2nd calibration. At this rate in a month or so it's going to be at full charge capacity my Apple battery was after 10 years. Not at all happy about this.
