Battery issues on 2011 MBP

[Hook'Em2006]

Hey All,
Just stepped into the mac arena about a month ago. Got my 15" 2011 2.0 MBP about 2 weeks ago and just noticed that the battery % never goes to 100%. It will when charging but as soon as I unplug it goes to 98%. I have tried calibrating and what not. Also, when checking the battery health in coconut and istat pro, it says the battery health is at 97% (total health, not charge) only after 17 cycles. That seems a little weird to me.

So, is this an issue or non-issue?

non issue ... just use and enjoy your Mac ... it is covered under AC incase it becomes a problem

You don't have battery issues...

take a look at this thread, and in particular, read through the links that GGJStudios posted:

It's normal for the battery to show somewhere in the high 90s when fully charged. Don't sweat the small stuff.

Non issue. Its normal for the battery not to charge to 100%.
