I am an active user of my Macbook Pro and am into the habit of using it plugged in most of the time.
My MBP is early 2007 model, is 6 months old and has done 31 charge cycles (out of which 3-4 must be full discharge whereas most others would be partial like use from 95% till 30-40% battery charge is left and then charge again). I also play games under windows xp on my mac for considerable time (for 5-6 hours each Saturday and Sunday) with charger plugged in all the time.
My Battery Health has suddenly dipped to 86% after the previous calibration process(full discharge and then full charge). It was about 94% prior to this calibration process.
I want to know how bad is this 86% battery health?? Should I get it replaced immediately or could it be that it is a temporary error.
I use iStat Pro for battery monitoring.
Please provide suggestions why this could have happened as I take pretty good care of battery.
Would Apple provide free replacement as MBP is still under warranty?
