it seems like mine is super high in the battery count sia. 110 for less than 5 months usage.
is it because the fact that i am on boot camp 99% of time while my dedicated AMD graphic card kicks in always? I only get around 3hrs++ battery life while i am in bootcamp (windows 10). This post has been edited by westlife: Dec 7 2015, 09:34 AM |

QUOTE(westlife @ Dec 7 2015, 07:57 PM) wow ic. that's really little battery cyclle. There are times when I use the notebook and then when I plug in to charge, it does not count as a cycle as it does not fall under a set level. For example. I used last nite and stopped using it at level 70%. This morning I started charging and when it comes to 100% the running cycle count still the same. mine is crazily high sia comparing to anyone of you guys here. |

Personally, I try to avoid running the batts down to <40% or less unless I am planning to calibrate the batts once a month. The reason being is that at very low level, the charging is at a very high rate. Even the batts get hot. Experience from my RC days, was that batteries that are subjected to high heat charging input tends to die sooner than those being charged slowly....

That's mean if you do the same thing 70% for 3 times then it's would be charged 30*3 (90% ) almost 1 cycle... |

This morning I started charging and when it comes to 100% the running cycle count still the same. https://support.apple.com/en-sg/HT201585Determining battery cycle count for Mac notebooks Use this article to determine the cycles on your Mac notebook's battery. About battery cycles Use of your Mac notebook battery accrues in the form of charge cycles. A charge cycle means using all of the battery’s power, but that doesn’t necessarily mean a single charge. For instance, you could use your notebook for an hour or more one day, using half its charge, and then recharge it fully. If you did the same thing the next day, it would count as one charge cycle, not two. It might take several days to complete a cycle. Batteries have a limited amount of charge cycles before they are considered to be consumed. Once consumed, a replacement battery is recommended. You can use your battery after it reaches its maximum cycle count, but you might notice a reduction in your battery life. Knowing how many charge cycles your battery has and how many are left can help you determine when a battery replacement is required. For optimal performance, replace your battery when you reach its maximum cycle count. Follow these steps to access information about your Mac notebook battery including the cycle count: Hold the Option key and click the Apple Menu. Choose the option to open System Information. Under the Hardware section of the System Information window, select Power. The current cycle count is listed under the Battery Information section. |

It is stated that the batts could last for 1000 cycles. That means literally 1000 full discharge. You could leave the unit pluged in most of the time, but IMO use it as it is. At least the battery will get its 'exercise' now and again. |
