[QUOTE="rukind2, post: 736644, member: 1940"] Same issue here. Here is what iStat reads for my 2.33 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo: Health: 39% Cycles: 381 Charge: 84% 0:47 remaining My laptop is less than a year old. So, as I read it, even though the battery is 84% charged, it only has 47 minutes remaining. Is this typical for this battery? I had the 1st generation MBP and the G4 before it and they did not have this problem. My usage pattern has not changed so the cycles shouldn't matter (right?). Even when it's plugged in the remaining time drops. Time for a new battery or is something else going on here? [/QUOTE]
