QUOTE Built right into each of the new MacBook Pro notebooks is a breakthrough battery that lasts dramatically longer and does so without increasing the size or weight of MacBook Pro. On a single charge, the battery in the new MacBook Pro lasts up to 7 hours (8 hours on the 17-inch MacBook Pro)1 and can be recharged up to 1000 times.2 That’s compared with only 200 to 300 times for typical notebooks. Advanced chemistry and Adaptive Charging allows the battery to maintain charging capabilities longer and determines the optimal way to charge the battery’s cells. Because the battery lasts up to five years, MacBook Pro uses just one battery in the same time a typical notebook uses three. That makes for less waste. And that, in turn, makes for one environmentally friendly battery. the new MBP battery seems to be able to charge upto 1000 times compared to regular which is 300 times before it reaches 80% sos : http://www.apple.com/macbookpro/battery/This post has been edited by jinaun: Sep 14 2009, 10:55 AM |

QUOTE(seancorr @ Sep 18 2009, 08:26 PM) Yeah I got mine plugged into AC 24/7 and I rarely turn my laptop off. Batt is still good so far and this laptop is over a year old. weird.. other people would swear that the batt will die if plugged into the main 24/7.. i think its depends on how the battery/circuit are manufactured/formulated/designed ... good design=battery lasts longer vs poor design = battery last shorter thats y i think many if not all would not want to warranty battery longer than necessary |
