[QUOTE="Aptmunich, post: 237276, member: 3850"] Not really true, when the macbook (NOT the pro) gets at least 3,5 and normally 4-5 hours on average... Don't trust the guage, it's normally a bit off anyway - just because it reads 2 hours doesn't mean the notebook will shut down in exactly 2 hours... I would recalibrate (completely drain & then fully recharge) the battery and see how long you can actually work with the mbp. If it is still only 2 hours, I'd contact applecare and explain the measures you've already taken. There were quite a few faulty macbook pro batterys apparently, maybe you've got a bad one... [/QUOTE]
