8 cycles, 94% battery health...

[cooper999]

...and this is after calibrating twice. Do you think I have a legitimate concern that the battery that came with my new MBP (15.4 in/2.5 gig processor) might be defective? 94% after less than a week seems kind of sketchy.

Any input is welcome-this forum has been invaluable for many questions I've had that didn't have to post to get an answer for.

Takes time for batteries to get into their cycle. How much charge do you get (i.e. hours of usage) ?

If you are getting 3 to 3:30 hours on just surfing the net then your battery is doing fine.
