All batteries by Apple are designed to withstand at least 1000 charge cycles while retaining a 80% or above charge. The percentage is not based off of a different circuit, it is calculated directly through the use of the battery. If you can bring it into an Apple Store or a certified retailer, then they will do a diagnostic, and see if you battery isn't working correctly. iPhone 5 has been notorious for shitty battery, so I wouldn't be surprised. You will be able to get the 5s or the 6's for cheaper as it gets closer to September/October when Apple releases their new phones.

If you don't have access to a apple store, you can try looking around for a battery replacement, or you should get a new phone. Your battery is barely two thirds into it's life cycle and has lost 40% of it's capacity, instead of less than 20%. It is hardware defect so if you don't have access to any Apple dealers, then you can always phone them and get them to send a pre-paid box so you can send it in directly.
