In addition to the previous advice- I use hwmonitor pro 1.16 ,and it gives the battery state (wear ) showing if it is getting out of usability, or, 25% , 50% worn- it is a free download - http//:www.cpuid.com/downloads/hwmonitor

On the right of the page you will see a lightning sign on a red background, under that are the zip files- download one of them and save it , then run it and it should show you how worn your battery is-
