What I mean is that the "comments" may not be correct so if it says the 
charge efficiency in CC mode is 90% I can't be sure that its really 90% 
without setting up my own testing and verifying.  The magic constants 
may have been adjusted for a battery thats really 87% without updating 
the comments to match.
