Battery Update 1.2 for Intel laptops

Zach,

I'd try again if I were you. You said 217? Is that cycles or mAh? Double-check, what's your cycles and full capacity (mAh) at?

My cycles are at 144, and I've got 4894 mAh. The guy didn't eve ask anymore questions besides my address to ship a new one to.

I called to ask a question about my battery and they guy just sent me a new one. I don't even think it needs to be replaced.

I just called because after I installed the update, I read about the symptoms that it should have if it would be needed to be replaced, mine was:

Battery exhibits low charge capacity/runtime when using a fully charged battery with a battery cycle count (as shown in System Profiler) of less than 300.

Mine is holding 217(Connected, Fully Charged) and AppleCare said they could only exchange it if it had two or more symptoms, so, yeah, you'all might want to try anyways though.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

It's a C2D 15" MBP, bought it the day it was released approx. 6 months ago.

What is the profiler stats supposed to look like? I think my battery is leaking capacity.

Can someone look at this picture and tell me if something's wrong?

yeah, they charge you if you don't.

For anyone getting a new battery form Apple after calling them about their issues, do they make you send back the old battery?

anybody getting a new whine coming out of sleep mode after this update as well?

On my MBPro Coconut Battery now shows a battery capacity at 4200 (out of 5500 mAh). Previously it was like 2000...

That said after about 5 minutes on battery it still shuts down violently without warnning :-( I guess I'll have to call Apple too.

My battery started acting weird last fall. It would shutdown without warning while on battery power. Then I looked at the battery and saw that it was starting to swell. This also was the cause of weird things while using the click bar. An hour on the phone to Apple and I had my new battery in a few days.
