A bit disappointing that I've only got 71 cycles and my battery is down to 93% of capacity (and I did a full calibration about two weeks ago).

My MBP is 12 months old, but I exchanged my battery about 4-5 months ago as part of the recall program.

Current capacity: 5127 mAh
Original capacity: 5500 mAh

Hehe... I completely forgot about the recall. My battery is only a couple of months old, since I got mine replaced with the recall as well.

Wow! This is a semi old post. But,

8 months

[Mactime]

is there away to find out (maybe via system preferences ) how many load cycles a battery went through without downloading a program like coconut?

thanks
