[QUOTE="OneWonders, post: 1948284, member: 211746"] This a Mac Book Pro 15 in 2018 model 15.1 running Sonoma 14.7.2. I bought this used 6 mo ago. Right from the start the battery would drain down to nothing if left unplugged for a week to 10 days Then it was using macOS 12 then 13 and now 14. and has had the same problem no matter what OS. I've had many MBPs and MBAs never encountered this. Wondering if you gentlemen would have a suggestion as to what I could do to solve this. I know, leave it charging. Right? Yes I know, there is still something not right. Maybe battery is defective or some process slowly draining power even though it is off. Not found any similar posts about this problem. There should no reason it couldn't be left a few days without looosing half its charge. And I'm sure this is probably aging the battery prematurely as it has gone to zero several times. I am Grateful for this wonderful forum and read it regularly Thanks for any help Paul [/QUOTE]
