Terrible Current battery capacity

[renzach]

Hi there,

I bought this MBP late 2007. Recently I found that battery life of my MBP is very very low. I calibrated the battery according to the MBP instructions in the apple support URL. I also reset SMC, but it also did not help.
I appreciate if anyone give me a hint, what next step is.

TIA

Time to buy a new battery. They do wear out and yours is 3 years old.

Batteries go bad, buy a new one.

Thank you, techhound and mike.
I am going to buy a new battery. I wanted to check if this is not abnormal.

I just bought a new battery from OWC. Couldn't be happier.

Take it to the genius bar and tell them that you've only got 91 cycles on it and it's shot. They might give you a new one gratis.

If you don't have time - order one online and be done with it.
