About the full capacity question: Like Arct1k said, nope.

Anything lower than 4.2v will reduce the capacity. You can get away with lowering the CC/CV threshold to around 4.0v/cell and not lose too much, but you will still lose something. I have my Xtrema set to 4.15v/cell just as a little safety margin in case a pack is not fully balanced before the threshold, and haven't noticed any runtime loss. But I don't exactly time it either.
