[QUOTE="pigoo3, post: 1526990, member: 56379"] Total battery runtime on a single charge can vary greatly depending on what you are doing. I can tell you one thing...playing games (in most cases)...is a BIG drain on the battery (takes a lot of power to play most games). Also...yeah...maybe the seller said that the battery is new...but I''l tell you what. Given the value of a 2006 MacBook Pro...putting a brand new $129 battery in it is a pretty expensive endeavor. Definitely check "Coconut Battery" to see how many charge/discharge cycles the battery really has. - Nick [/QUOTE]
