I'm running Battery health app and cocunut battery for macbook retina to measure my battery but my Battery charge ( current charge ) doesn't charge up to 100 %..

So my readings in Battery health app after a full over night charge are like this -

Battery charge
Current charge- 97.9 percent ( 8360 mAh ) for the current charge

Battery health
Current max: 8545 mah
Original max: 8460 mah

I know that Battery health capacity.. the current max decreases over time.. but shouldn't the Battery charge ( current charge ) still be able to reach 100% ?
 
That is normal for it to fluctuate around the 90%+ range, particularly if you have not discharged the battery very much during the last round of use.

Run it on battery down to 60& or so and often you will see the next recharge come up closer to 100%.
 
Most devices dont get to 100%... Its a common thing.

No need to worry, just enjoy!
 
It's normal that your battery may stop charging between 93-99%. For details, read the CHARGING section of the following link. This should answer most, if not all, of your battery/charging questions:
