I genuinely can't figure this out. I found an iPhone label with 1000x, which seems obvious. So what the hell is XY00? Everything else in the image is an example value.

Edit: right reading through this thread it seems its 100x the value, so XY represents a number, e.g. 15, then it would be 1500 cycles. The iPhone label I found must be from an earlier test or something. I like the rest but this seems unclear.

Then it will just say "1500x". The "XY00" is just for this example, and means it will always be divisible by 100.

Edit: on the printed label only. Not the website, which is stupid.
