Hmmm... I am sure that different battery makers would have similar but not 
the same curves for the same battery types, and that different types would 
have totally different curves all together. And I would bet that the battery 
makers aren't to forthcoming with the information needed to make these 
calculations, as longer battery life results in less sales (thus profits) in 
the future. So, I guess I will have to keep records of my own, and find out 
what rate is best by trial and error.
Thanks,
