[QUOTE="RadDave, post: 1746801, member: 234411"] Hello again and thanks for the information above - at only 288 cycles, the 'battery health' should be closer to 80% - now you're a number of years or more 'out of warranty' (depending on whether AppleCare had applied?) - the current Apple battery replacement cost would be about $130 (see pic below - [URL="https://support.apple.com/mac-notebooks/repair/service/pricing"]Source[/URL]), which would guarantee a much longer 'run time' off AC power - not sure how your wife likes to use a laptop; also, if you are planning on a replacement, provide information on your RAM and drive type? Dave :) . [ATTACH=FULL]25781[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
