Hey guys,

When I first got my mbp, I noticed that it took a pretty long time to recharge my battery. It is a 2.16 ghz C2D refurb that is still under the apple year warranty. Anyway an example would be it takes 25 min to charge the battery from 92% to 100%. Is this normal? If so, I am not used to such charge times...my thinkpad x61s absorbs power like no other.

I have 38 loadcycles, and 5204 mAh at capacity. My battery lasts around 3 hours.

Just trying to see if I have a battery issue before I bit the bullet on a new one.
 
Take a look here. I also have MBP like you and charge battery from 90% to 100% take a long time. I see such behavior from the very beginning.
