iBook Battery problems since Tiger 10.4.3

[jbrown]

Since going directly from Panther to Tiger 10.4.3, I'm only seeming to get 1 hour battery life, whereas it was more like 3 before.

Any reasons for this?? Any suggestions what I should do?

Using Coconut battery application it says this:

Current Battery Charge = 420 mAh
Maximum Battery Chaarge = 2115 mAh
__________________________________

Current Battery Capacity = 2115 mAh
Original Battery Capacitiy = 4400 mAh


So it seems to be telling me I've lost half the batteries original capacity!!
Any clever tricks like zapping PRAM - pressing reset buttons ets??

thanks all - and yes I've searched

Have you calibrated it recently? Charge it up, fully discharge it and then fully charge it again. :)

Oh, and that PMU reset is a good idea.
