I also checked my old HP nx9030 and the battery label says this:

11.1V and 4400mAh (which is 48.84Wh) but GPM says that design charge is 88.8Wh!

This is obviously not correct - I can provide the photo from the
battery label if you don't trust me.

here is other info from HP nx9030 laptop battery:
