Battery with 828 Charge Cycles, is it unsafe?

[mgartner0622]

Hello everyone,

I received a Black 2.4GHz MacBook that I bought on eBay a few days ago to add to my collection.
The battery reports 828 charge cycles, and has about 82% of it's original charge capacity, and still lasts a good 2.5 hours.
What I want to know is, is it unsafe to use it like this?
Apple Battery FAQ doesn't not really say when to replace the battery, besides when it doesn't hold that good of a charge anymore.
Should I be worried?
Thank you!

Not at all. You should be ecstatic!

The only time you need to replace a battery is when it doesn't hold a charge, or unless it's gone visibly bad and has started swelling.

Well, that's certainly great news!
Thank you very much for your information!
