Yesterday I was using my MacBook Pro watching a video, all of a sudden my MBP's screen turns black and the sleep light turns on and then eventually dies out... I go and get my MagSafe, plug it in. Everything seems fine. I press the start button, nothing seems out of the ordinary. Once it starts up, I noticed the percentage of the battery wasn't going up very fast.
So, I clicked on the battery bar at the top and it said "Service Battery".
Now, my MBP took the normal amount of time to charge, so it charged and I left it fully charged plugged in for about 2 hours.
I then unplugged the computer and all of a sudden the message disappeared. It hasn't appeared since. OS X is saying the battery is in normal condition and the battery health went back up to 91% (it went down to 72% at the time of the "Service Battery" warning). I just finished charging it again and the message did not appear.
So, is my battery okay, or should I get it serviced?
It's only year and a few months old. I did not get AppleCare, which I regret now.
Thanks!
