My old 667MHz PowerBook G4 Titanium Onyx is still using the same battery it came with when I bought it 2001. It is a 4200 mAh battery and iStat reports that it has 432 cycles. Yet, it still lasts just as long as when I bought the battery which is around 3 hours and iStat reports 100% health efficiency. Is this normal for these batteries or am I just lucky?
 
Yay! *Jumps for joy and then looks wildly around the room to see if anybody's looking*

I mean thats good...
 
Lucky. My 2002 PowerBook's battery lasts about long enough to boot the machine. I plug it in every time I use it.
