[QUOTE="pigoo3, post: 1634038, member: 56379"] All those mAh numbers don't mean much. Your main concern seems to be the maximum charge…so all your numbers need to be related to a full 100% charge. Yes the computer will lose charge overnight. When the computer sleeps…it uses battery power. I have had a laptop lose up to 5% battery charge in 24 hours of just sleeping. You need to charge this computer to 100% charge…and see what that mAh number is on an ongoing basis. And always look at 100% charge numbers. And if you've had this new battery since October…why the "did I get a bad battery" concern start all of a sudden (3 months later)? If it was a "bad battery"…probably should have seen something much before now. Finally. If this was an Apple replacement battery…and you think that something is "dodgy" about it. Head to the Apple Store for a discussion. - Nick [/QUOTE]
