[QUOTE="pigoo3, post: 1627003, member: 56379"] There's a lot of bad info out there about how to treat laptop batteries. I don't think that allowing a laptop battery to drain all the way to 0% is good for the battery. If you are interested in learning more about battery care…give this link a read (below)…and check the "Battery" link in my signature: [url=http://www.apple.com/batteries/maximizing-performance/]Apple - Batteries - Maximizing Performance[/url] It's very possible the battery is defective in some way…and not at all related to any sort of battery "abuse". I was just mentioning the "abuse info" just for completeness sake.:) Please let us know how things turn out. Always great to hear how Apple handles various situations!:) - Nick [/QUOTE]
