I'm curious as to how many cycles have you gone through in your retina macbook.
 
Using iStat:

100% Health
56 Cycles

I've had this machine since around the release data of the MacBook Pro Retina.
 
14 weeks, 9 cycles.. 100% battery life.

As you can tell I leave it plugged in a lot. The 9 cycles are just when I unplugged it to get the battery some use (heard its better that way).
 
How many cycles have you gone through..

How many cycles have you gone through (Retina MBP edition)

Well, I went through Four Cycles I guess:

Geez those are NICE..

I Need One..

I'd Really Would Like One..

I guess I could wait.. Maybe..

:apple:
 
45 cycles in 2 months, mainly use it around the house. I found it a bit too heavy to carry it around all day long.
 
1 cycle, 105% health, 2 months old.

I wonder, is there some benefit to cycling the battery every so often (besides improving calibration)?
