[QUOTE="poopieboy, post: 916296, member: 116678"] Those time readings you get on the menu bar aren't really all that accurate, so I'm hoping you're saying you get 7:33 because you actually timed it. When I take my 13" MBP to school, I use firefox, ichat and either MS Word or MS Excel or both. I usually run anywhere from 2 to 4 applications at a time. My average battery life with the screen brightness at about 65% and the keyboard lighting at 100% is usually between 4.5 to 5.5 hours. I have never gotten a battery life better than this, as I don't really just use it to browse the internet in 1 window for hours on end. Its usually multiple tabs open in Firefox. I'm generally satisfied with the battery life. [/QUOTE]
