Ill give you a decent piece of advice. AS apple said reduce your brightness it can double your battery life. I never saw any reason on why to use more than 40-50% brightness on my MBP, especially on the battery.
i am not concerned about getting more battery life. i am concerned that a new machine has dropped so fast on coconut battery it is now down to 91% iam concerned in another month it will be in the 80s.
