Hey all,
I just recieved my OWC 67watt an hour battery. The one that states 21% more juice than the original battery.
Well I got it and everything and I started the conditioning. This is how it went: 1st charge 5400mAh, 2nd charge 5600mAh!, 3rd charge 5200mAh, 4th charge 5200mAh, 5th charge 5012mAh!
What I don't understand is that I'm doing exactly as it states on the conditioning says: fully charge when recieved for 12 hours (did that), completely discharge (did that), recharge fully again w/o interuptions (did that). Then I did the conditioning again (says that it can take 5 or more charge cycles) to get the 6000mAh that it promises. Except now that every time I charge it the level goes down even further!!!
Does anyone have any advice on what I should do? I've been doing what the sheet says that came with the battery and also online at www.macsales.com/newbatteryconditioning .
Please help!

P.S. sorry about bad grammer and spelling... I'm running on like 8 hours sleep in the last 72 hours. Only three more weeks and I get a vacation...
