Inconcistence battery capacity

I AM NOT NATIVE ENGLISH, TRANSLATED USED
Hello guys, i newbie. I fight problems about battery in my laptop. I was try search in internet why my battery drops so fast and powertop --calibrate dont solved. But look above

Battery 0: Discharging, 88%, 05:09:36 remaining
Battery 0: design capacity 4054 mAh, last full capacity 4054 mAh = 100%

acpi -i information in BAT but:

Battery 0: Charging, 88%, 00:20:52 until charged
Battery 0: design capacity 3994 mAh, last full capacity 3994 mAh = 100%

Same battery with different capacity and put same time a lot same thing:

Battery 0: Charging, 88%, 00:20:53 until charged
Battery 0: design capacity 3992 mAh, last full capacity 3992 mAh = 100%

Battery 0: Charging, 87%, 00:20:53 until charged
Battery 0: design capacity 3991 mAh, last full capacity 3991 mAh = 100%

Battery 0: Charging, 87%, 00:20:53 until charged
Battery 0: design capacity 3807 mAh, last full capacity 3807 mAh = 100%

Please use [code][/code] tags. Edit your post in this regard.

tail /sys/class/power_supply/BAT*/*

Also please quantify "fast" - seconds, minutes or hours?
The shifting capacity suggests that the battery has seen its best days and is nowhere near holding its original design capacity.
Otherwise check "powertop" to see what's draining the most energy (and how much)
