Post Your Air Battery Status

[Santa Rosa]

Just wondering what the general consensus is on the state of the Air batteries so we can get a reasonable overview of what is happening with them:

Maybe try and keep the posts to a similar format such as:

Battery Health: 95%
Battery Cycles: 2
Calibration: Yes

Something like that anyway. Above is what I am getting at the moment.

 

[mcvaughan]

Health: 96%
Cycles: 19
Calibrated: Yes

 

[Mactagonist]

Health: 95%
Cycles: 16

 

[Shrek-Moscow]

Cycles 23
Healt: 98% (5027 mAh)

 

[LevMac]

Health: 100%
Cycles: 4
Full Charge Capacity: 5107mAh
Calibrated: No

 

[Bambeezer]

Health: 96%
Cycles: 33

 

[AstroHouse]

Health: 97%
Cycles: 26
Full Charge Capacity: 4985 mAh
Calibrated: Yup

 

[rekha]

I use a Battery Tender and a DC - AC converter.

 

[abc861]

Health 99%
Cycle 24
i keep the electrons move regularly

 

[iHerzeleid]

Full charge capacity (mAh): 4783

Cycles: 5

 

[bence8810]

Health: 95%

Calibrated: No

p.s. It was always at 95% health from day one. It had one cycle already, otherwise its okay. Charge times are also normal.

 

[twynne]

Battery Health: 96%

How do you check your battery health?

Dumb question... how do you check your battery health and what do the numbers mean?

 

[darxun]

Health: 97%
Cycles: 12
Full charge capacity (mAh): 4952
Clibrated: What's that?

 

[wolfie]

what does the health mean and how do we improve it?


i got health 92.
cycles 4.

how can i improve health

thanks

iStats is a crock of crap.

iStats now says my battery health is 97% and still have 5 cycles.

I wouldn't rely on iStats too much.

iStat gets the info from the about this mac>more info bit i think, so I think it is reliable.

How come the MBA battery degrades so quickly?

I really wonder how often does you guys use your macbook air ? why 80% people's MBair batt cycle is less then 10 cycles ??? o.0

Interesting.....

 

[LizKat]

Battery Health: 97%

Well some might use it mainly with power plugged in.

 

[MRU]

94%
34 cycles
calibration = yes

 

[wolfie]

hey guys, acording to my system profiler my batter fully charged is 4593mAH

and is 90 per cent battry health and 6 cycles.

ive had it for 3 weeks. im about to attempt to calibrate battery but does the mAH figure seem low to you guys?

or normal?

I mostly use my Mac Magazine Air - it's too thin to be called a Book, anyway, I use it plugged into the mains for the most part.

I'm monitoring the status of my battery on iStat nano. I'm performing a battery calibration, I've reconnected the power supply less than one hour ago and I realized that iStat is predicting a total charge time that's always abouto 30/50 minutes longer that what shown by OS X on the side of the battery icon.

Is it normal?
Is it something 'normal' just because I'm recalibrating?
