Hey,
I have a question for you guys. I think my MBP's battery is failing. According to Coconut Battery, my original battery still retains 93 percent of it's design capacity. That's very good considering my MBP is over 2 years old. Yet, since last night the amount of battery the charge holds is greatly decreased. Currently, I'm on ethernet with my wifi off, only Word, safari, open. I have Splashtop 2, Alfred, and VMWareFusion running in the background. Not really much in the area of labor intensive. I've probably used 6 percent of the battery in the past 10 minutes. That's not right - at all. Yet, Coconut Battery thinks it's fine. Is there another cause for this? Is Coconut Battery wrong? Should I call apple?
