very very weird power management changes after resetting adaptations with INPA

Hello Guys.

right so, ever since i bought this car, it has always acted like it had a bad battery, the starter motor always sounded like it had a permanant hangover, I replaced the battery a few months back, everything was still exactly the same, hungover starter etc. even after a long drive, switching off and starting it again, it was the same. with OBD software, the batt would go as low as 6volt on starting and just with interior lights on and the car off, the batt showed just under 12v. i thought it may be the regulator not charging correctly.

last night i took the plunge and reset all adaptations on INPA, which should reset everything.

now, i have just been on a short drive to the shops, getting back to my car and starting it, it sounded like a completely different car, the starter sounded like it went double the speed, the interior lights did not dim out nearly as much as they used to on starting, with the car off the electric seats and steering wheel all feel alot faster when adjusting them

this is weird to me, my only answer is that this car's power management may have some kind of "adaptations" between the alternator and the batt because the batt never charged properly until now.

any ideas?
