Malcolm, During this meanwhile I updated my kernel to latest stable which is something around version 3.15, then I cleaned all my previous boot options from grub2 and added just your suggested line: acpi_osi=\"!Windows 2012\" I have not yet had the possibility to test the reached battery limit but I noticed an encouraging fact: the warning message of Upower about battery design is disappeared: UPower-Linux-WARNING **: energy_full (43.772400) is greater than energy_full_design (41.990400) Then may be your suggestion did the trick!
