QUOTE(Kernkraft400 @ Jan 8 2010, 02:46 AM) What is the implication if i turn on my MacBook Pro 13" for hours and hours with charger on? Maybe days, because i need to burn in my headphone if u guys know what i mean. Also, what happens if we don't have AppleCare and our battery doesn't work?Can retailers help us change the battery on the spot? i leave my MBP on for days when i have something to download. doesnt seem to have any bad effects to me, juz make sure it gets adequate cooling n dont put on soft stuff like mattresses and pillows. what headphone have u got there?

Those are nice headphones you've got there. I have the SR225 myself.
You could just plug it in to a radio or portable player if you don't want to keep your Mac on.

The only portable player i have with me now is the iPhone. I wouldn't want to mess with the iPhone either, because i dont want it to have a shorter battery lifespan. You know how fragile the iPhone is  I didn't know you're a fellow audiophile also

Hi all . I have the 15MBP bought 2 months back. even at full charge I get about 6 hours of "projected" usable battery time. I only have finder, firefox and wifi running. the screen is down to the minimum and the keyboard lights were off. I tot it should average about 7-8 hrs of common use??

[g] firefox quite RAM hungry, moreover if u open a website that has flash stuff. this can lower battery life

but most sites will have some amount of flash or some form of java. then again 6 hours is pretty good.. compared to my office laptop.. 1.5 hours LOL!

jing-leBelle,
Roughly drops around 150mAh each 20 cycles...
Some guys in previous page managed to control the mAh closer to original capacity. Wonder what's the magic trick.
i am calibrating once within 1 or 2months.
edit : sorry typo : 20 cycles..haa
