[QUOTE="pigoo3, post: 1320681, member: 56379"] My wife has the same MacBook as you (early 2009 Unibody model with the 2.26ghz cpu)...and she gets 4-5 hours no problem. And her battery has around 150 cycles on it...compared to your brand new battery. So the issue could be either "user" related (settings or usage patterns)...or there's an issue with the MacBook. - Nick p.s. Have you tried calibrating/recalibrating your battery?: [url=http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1490]Apple Portables: Calibrating your computer's battery for best performance[/url] [/QUOTE]
