+Description:
+		Battery capacity measurement becomes unreliable without
+		recalibration. This values provides the maximum error
+		margin expected to exist by the fuel gauge in percent.
+		Values close to 0% will be returned after (re-)calibration
+		has happened. Over time the error margin will increase.
+		100% means, that the capacity related values are basically
+		completely useless.
