![]() ![]() Thank you for sharing your insights with me. Your battery may drain to 90 or lower before it begins charging again. This can happen for a few reasons: Your computer temporarily paused charging to extend the life of your battery. The Battery Status menu on your Mac notebook might say Not Charging, even if it’s connected to power. Is a repeated battery calibration likely to solve this riddle? If your Mac battery status is Not Charging. Has this been discussed before and is there a knowledge base about the use of replacement batteries not manufactured/distributed by Apple that I could tap into? ![]() When ordering through an Internet vendor, I had failed to notice that this battery was a A1281 replacement battery manufactured by Dekcell.Īpple goes to some lengths explaining on the website why their battery technology is superior to others and now I am having some doubts whether I should continue using this A1281 replacement battery from a different supplier - even if it was made for the MacBook Pro. Fully charged, the battery lasts about as long as the original that came with my MacBook Pro - as far as I can tell. The battery appears to be working normally and the charge indication on the desktop shows an increasing charge. I noticed that when I use this recently purchased second battery, the light on the Magsafe plug glows green right from the start, even if the battery is virtually empty. ![]() As roadwarrior (of sorts) and recent Mac convert I thought I should spend the extra money on a second battery for my MacBook Pro 15.4".
