Correct, your batteries lost 8 percent of their charge capacity due to damage from the hit. Once thought it was a bug, but after testing many modifications, found it is part of the damage model. We just have a inadequate damage information system in SH 4. Like when a torpedo tube is repaired according to screen, but still does not work, because the outer door was blown off (if have external view can see doors missing). While the DC screen shows repairs to the tube itself, it does not display about a key mechanism that was destroyed.
