When I got my macbook pro in June, Coconut Battery reported battery health between 97% and 99%. After my careful treatment and successful cycles I am now happy to show off my battery's new health and the recent jump in battery life as a result. Check out the screenshots. This is what I call good battery life.
Got a tip for us?

You either didn't get it in June or CoconutBattery is messing up the date...
Good job on the calibrating, though...

June 17th I got it, the date on Coconut is when it was manufactured which means it was manufactured in April.
What is this secret tuning you did?
No secret tuning guys. I'm not that advanced.
I went through weeks with it between 97% and 100% but I figured if I kept charging it to 100%, leaving it plugged in for a while then using it on battery till it completely turned off then going through that process a few times a week hoping it would get better. I've not seen many macbook pros at 100% when they ship and are charged but my friends blacbook is always 100%. Now I can say mine is too. Care to share your battery stats with us? I advise you both to do what I've done for a few weeks and see if you notice an improvement if you don't already do that, that is. Note that I've never interrupted a charge, the MBP is either charging to 100% before I take the power out or it's being used down from 100% on battery. I'm very pertinacity and precise on the use of it since it's first charge.There is no reason why your MBP's can't be 100% health and excellent battery life since it's all about the care you take of them since they're naturally good quality batteries.
