Battery Degrading - Months Used/Cycles/Battery Reading (rMB 2015)

2-3 can't remember/43 cycles/4943

working great

 

2/11/5260 (99.3%) using rMB on battery when needs be, when I am at home and the rMB is predominantly on the mains supply I will run it on the battery every couple of weeks to keep the electrons flowing, dropping the battery by 10% - 20%.

Have a 2014 13" rMb which I treat the same 9/56/6320 (99.8%) same story with the 15" rMBP, however it`s not with me at present to get the numbers.

Q-6

 

"3/25/4942" – what do these numbers mean? I'm guessing the 4942 is mAh?

 

I had similar concerns with my battery usage. I went to see a Genius at the Apple Store. They ran their diagnostic software and determined that my battery was normal. My numbers are 2/19/5081-5121

I now have taken Queen6’s advice and use the rMB plugged in the wall and use it on battery less of the time to save on wasting battery cycles.

 

Read the title of the thread.

 

Yep, I saw that. (Sorry, I saw that later. I feel like a doofus.)
I’m thinking maybe the unusual battery readings are because it is a new battery technology?

 

Yes, it`s better to use portable Mac`s off the mains supply from time to time, as it helps to keep the battery "healthy" run the rMB off the mains supply until the battery percentage reads around 80% and recharge, once or twice a month is enough.

3 months / 22 cycles / 5111 mAh

 

Woah, how do you have 5111 mAh? I have 3/19/5081.

 

4.5 months / 45 cycles / 5055 mAh

 

1 month / 17 cycles / 4949 mAh

 

1 month/9 cycles/5059 mAh

 

Wow....are you sure you guys are USING your ultra portable rMB?

3 months / 115 load cycles / 4909 mAh maximum charge (all from Coconut Battery)

 

1 week / 4 cycles / 5133mah

 

5 days / 4 cycles / 4792mAh

damn! i think mine has serious problem with the battery!

 

sorry to sound like a noob, but how can I check mine as well please?

 

download coconut Battery.

 

thanks

instead of looking at MAH, you should really look at percent..that is your battery health under design capacity. If it is below 85% this early on, then you probably have an issue.

 

i just shake the rMB hard... now I'm getting 5 days / 4 cycles / 5297mAh back!

 

My new MacBook’s battery was just replaced. Now the reading is: 1 week/2 cycles/5310 mAh
