I have a Alta U16M and I get 0.0097 e-/pix/sec (mean) and 0.0074 e-/pix/sec (median) at -30C. That's with overscan calibration. I started doing overscan calibration when I noticed that there was significant drift in my bias values and that the dark current didn't appear to scale linearly. Taking overscan into consideration the dark current behaves as you would expect...

Cheers,
