About my battery duration

i bought my apple i5 last december from malaysiya during my tour. as the instructions were given i charged it for 8 hours. but now i am in sri lanka i see that my apple does not hold its batteries at least a day. but my friend who uses the same phone uses hin batteries for two days. unfortunately we have got no apple store in sri lanka. can u plc help me in this matter. i have an international warrent with me.

Here are some battery conservation tips for the iPhone:

  • Sudden decline in battery duration?

    Purchased macbook pro in October 2007, so i've had it for about six months. Battery regularly held up for about 4-5 hours during school usage (typing, surfing, researching), and nothing heavy. However, just within the past two days i noticed significant drop-off in my battery duration. My battery currently only lasts for about an hour to two hours doing the same things (as indicated by timer on the top right of the screen). Just wanted to know if this regularly occurs for anybody else as well, because it seems quite abnormal to me to lose almost 50% of your battery duration in one day. Other symptoms include: fans spin much faster and louder, cpu heats up quite high. Again, just to emphasize that this is just for light usage.
    I saw that others with related problems included information about their batteries, so here it is:

    Hi dereklok: You are on the right track, but at the bottom of the Activity Monitor screen, click on the CPU tab instead of the System Memory tab. When that one is open, click on the CPU tab at the top to sort by that column. Also at the top of the Activity Monitor dialog box make sure that All Processes is shown. This will show you the processes and the amount of CPU activity.
    Sorry if I stepped on your answer Kane

  • Hardware diagnostic shows me a problem about charging battery. What about it ?

    Hi.
    I bought a MacBook Pro retina 13', mid 14. on last december, and after almost a month I did the hardware test of apple as the Technic support says, and this hardware test shows me a problem about charging battery, so, I wanna know what about it, is it normal ? or is it a battery problem or is it a problem about the Current adaptador ? Thank your for your answers.

    Could be battery, could be adaptor, could be the computer itself.  You will have to take it in for testing.  Fortunately, you are still under warranty.

  • Concerned about falling battery capacity on rMBP

    Hello all, I'm starting to worry a bit about my battery capacity vs design capacity on my retina macbook pro 15". It's a early 2013 model that I bought in July. I know that apple guarantees the battery will have at least 80% of it's design capacity after 1000 cycles, but I'm worried mine is going to fall far short of that. Here's my coconut battery info:
    As you can see, I've only had 60 cycles on the battery, the computer is barely half a year old, and it's already down 6%, under 8000 mAh. Should I be concerned/take it to the apple store? I know they won't replace my computer since I'm far outside of my 14 days, but still wondering if they'll do something. Will they even do anything before the battery falls below 80% design capacity?
    I waited to post because I know battery capacity often fluctuates from 5% below to 5% above design frequently and will go up and down with use, but mine has steadily decreased, and has never increased. Every time I check coconut battery, it's 10-50 mAh lower than it was. My macbook does stay plugged in a lot, but I also make a point of using the battery at least once a week to keep the electrons flowing, and most weeks it gets off the charger more like two or three times. Often the battery will get used down to at least 50 or 60 percent before it gets plugged back in, sometimes even as low at 15 or 20 percent. I've tried draining it until it goes to sleep and then letting it charge to full again, but it didn't change anything. I didn't think it would, since lithium based batteries don't suffer memory issues, but I thought maybe it was just an error in measurement by the system.
    Speaking of that, I did reset the NVRAM/PRAM and the SMC (multiple times). Only one of the times I reset the SMC did the light turn orange and then charge more, but it didn't change the max capacity number at all.
    I see a lot of people posting their cocunut results/system information screen and finding they actually have above design capacity. Did I just get a lemon battery, or is it because I have it plugged in so much?
    Thoughts? Thanks!

    Apple guarantees that if your battery is well taken care of and not abused,  however your battery looks fine.
    You state: ~ As you can see, I've only had 60 cycles on the battery
    Cycle counts dont account for much.  People (some) leave their macbooks always hooked on power and worse still in sleep mode and on power and this can ruin a battery in "50 cycles", ergo it means little.
    As for the 5% power fluctuation this means absolutely nothing since charge is just an estimate and the 5% is within that range.
    Information:
    Bad discharging or battery use conditions:
    Heat (due to environmental conditions or due to rapid discharges from heavy use = gaming / video editing)
    Rapid discharging of the battery frequently causes chemical changes over time in the battery leading to decrease capacity and resistance of current flow.
    The very worst use of your battery is often draining the battery very low, and worse still letting it remain in such a state.
    *Most long-term rapid damage to the battery occurs from discharging it with high loading (gaming) conditions but paramount is avoiding deep and frequent low DOD (depths of discharge) in use.
    Undesirable charging or charged conditions:
    High perpetual SOC (state of charge), where the battery is always or very often connected to charge
    Parasitic loading where the battery is both usually on and charging or worse both always charging and in sleep mode, since this induces mini-cycling of the battery.
    Bad general handling conditions:
    Temperature use conditions when either too hot (95F and above) or too cold (50F and below)
    Storing your battery away with a low charge (40% and less) long-term.
    Considerations:
    Your battery is subject to chemical aging even if not in use. A Lithium battery is aging as soon as its made, regardless.
    In a perfect (although impractical) situation, your lithium battery is best idealized swinging back and forth between 25 and 85% SOC (state of charge) roughly.
    Further still how you discharge the battery is far more important than how it is either charged or stored short term.
    Ultimately counting charge cycles is of little to no importance.  Abuse in discharging (foremost), charging, and storing the battery and how it affects battery chemistry is important and not the ‘odometer’ reading, or cycle counts on the battery. 
    Everything boils down to battery chemistry long term, and not to an arbitrary number, or cycle count.
    Keep your macbook plugged in when near a socket since in the near end of long-term life, this is beneficial to the battery.
    http://www.apple.com/batteries/notebooks.html
    "Apple does not recommend leaving your portable plugged in all the time."
    General rule to remember of Lithium batteries is:
    Never drain them LOW  & dont always/often store them HIGH
    While cycle count is commonly seen to be the “miles” on your Lithium Ion pack cell in your Macbook, which they are, this distinction is not a fine line at all, and it is a big misconception to “count charge cycles”
    *A person who has, for example, 300 charge cycles on their battery and is recharging at say 50-60% remaining of a 100% charge has better battery usage and care than another person who has 300 charge cycles at say 15% remaining on a 100% charge. 
    DoD (depth of discharge) is far more important on the wear and tear on your Macbook battery than any mere charge cycle count.  *There is no set “mile” or wear from a charge cycle in general OR in specific.    As such, contrary to popular conception, counting cycles is not conclusive whatsoever, rather the amount of deep DoD on an averaged scale of its use and charging conditions.
    (as a very rough analogy would be 20,000 hard miles put on a car vs. 80,000 good miles being something similar)
    *Contrary to some myths out there, there is protection circuitry in your Macbook and therefore you cannot overcharge it when plugged in and already fully charged
    *However if you don’t plan on using it for a few hours, turn it OFF (plugged in or otherwise) ..*You don’t want your Macbook both always plugged in AND in sleep mode       (When portable devices are charging and in the on or sleep position, the current that is drawn through the device is called the parasitic load and will alter the dynamics of charge cycle. Battery manufacturers advise against parasitic loading because it induces mini-cycles.)
    Keeping batteries connected to a charger ensures that periodic "top-ups" do very minor but continuous damage to individual cells, hence Apples recommendation above:   “Apple does not recommend leaving your portable plugged in all the time”, …this is because “Li-ion degrades fastest at high state-of-charge”. This is also the same reason new Apple notebooks are packaged with 50% charges and not 100%.
    LiPo (lithium polymer, same as in your Macbook) batteries do not need conditioning. However...
    A lot of battery experts call the use of Lithium cells the "80% Rule" ...meaning use 80% of the charge or so, then recharge them for longer overall life.
    Never let your Macbook go into shutdown and safe mode from loss of power, you can corrupt files that way, and the batteries do not like it.
    The only quantified abuse seen to Lithium cells are instances when often the cells are repeatedly drained very low…. key word being "often"
    The good news is that your Macbook has a safety circuit in place to insure the battery doesn’t reach too low before your Macbook will auto power-off. Bad news: if you let your Macbook protection circuitry shut down your notebook at its bottom, and you refrain from charging it for a couple days...the battery will SELF-DRAIN to zero (depending on climate and humidity)…and nothing is worse on a Lithium battery being low-discharged than self-draining down to and sitting at 0
    Contrary to what some might say, Lithium batteries have an "ideal" break in period. First ten cycles or so, don't discharge down past 40% of the battery's capacity. Same way you don’t take a new car out and speed and rev the engine hard first 100 or so miles.
    Proper treatment is still important. Just because LiPo batteries don’t need conditioning in general, does NOT mean they dont have an ideal use / recharge environment. Anything can be abused even if it doesn’t need conditioning.

    Storing your MacBook
    If you are going to store your MacBook away for an extended period of time, keep it in a cool location (room temperature roughly 22° C or about 72° F). Make certain you have at least a 50% charge on the internal battery of your Macbook if you plan on storing it away for a few months; recharge your battery to 50% or so every six months roughly if being stored away. If you live in a humid environment, keep your Macbook stored in its zippered case to prevent infiltration of humidity on the internals of your Macbook which could lead to corrosion.

  • Some questions about the battery

    I have a couple of questions about the battery in general.
    Is it normal that my iPod Touch 4G charges very fast? It reaches 60% in only one hour and it's fully charged before it takes two hours. I know this is not bad but I'm just worried. How can I be sure if it's really loaded?
    Is it normal that the battery is very quick empty when I'm gaming? For now I'm blaming this due to the quick charge.
    Is it normal that for example my battery level is at 30% and when I put on standby or something or close a game, the battery starts rising for approx. 5% even 10% sometimes?
    Those are my question, I hope they are clear enough. Thanks in advance.
    Regards

    1. The tech specs says:
    Charging times: Fast charge in about 2 hours (80% capacity), full charge in about 4 hours
    2. Heavy use like gaming drains the batery fater then other use. The tech specs say:
    Video playback time: Up to 7 hours when fully charged
    3.. Yes, the indicate capacity tends to rise after heary draining is stopped.  The battery indicator is not that accurate is affected by temperature. Heavy use increases battery temperature and when it decreases battery temperature decreases.

  • HT1476 .about my battery

    hello,i'am one of apple's user.my imei is 013069001900950. I met some problem about my battery. the firt one is  when i charge to 97 percent,on screen display,jumping to 100 percent at once. another question is ,my phone descends 1 percent per hour/sandby. when i use wifi. 100 to 99 only ten minutes. i'm very worry. please reply me as soon as possible. thank you

    Hi Friend,
    I have found a solution for my iPhone battery life: recharge the battery until reach 80 to 85%. Make a full recharge just once a month (IOS 6 User's Guide). It takes few days to see the improvements.
    Now my battery life is over 15 hors with a single charge.
    Hope it will be helpful
    新年好

  • Confused about the battery...

    Hello everyone,
    I'm from Pakistan and I just switched to Mac almost 2-3 weeks ago. Since, they have proper apple authorized dealers here so I finally decided to get one for myself. I had some confusion about the battery and my system and now I'm getting very much concerned and worried as a matter of fact.
    I installed coconut battery (as few people suggested me) to check my battery status. First of all, it shows the age of my Mac as 5 months, which is pretty surprising since I got a brand new one and even the condition is of a brand new one so I have no clue why did it say that.
    Secondly, I would like to tell the condition of my battery:
    Current Battery Charge: 3591 mAh (I'm using on battery power right now)
    Maximum Battery charge: 4068 mAh
    88%
    Current Battery Capacity: 4068 mAh
    Original Battery Capacity: 4100 mAh
    99%
    Additional info:
    Battery-Loadcycles : 12
    Age of your Mac: 5 months
    Charger connected: No
    Battery is charging: No
    I am just concerned that my battery current capacity decreased to 99% after just 12 load cycles. Why is that? Some people tell that they have a 100% even after using it for a long time and other than that does anyone have any idea why is the age being shown as 5 months when I have only used it for 2 weeks.
    I'm really confused.
    Another suggestion that I want is that in Pakistan, we are having major electricity load shedding so I can't keep it on AC power most of the time so if my computer is shut-down and being charged. If the electricity goes and when it comes back and it starts charging to the point from where it left, will that waste the load-cycle or will it continue to charge it from there without wasting cycle? Does that affect the battery life? (Assuming that the computer is shut-down while being charged)
    Last thing, should I use it mostly on AC power or is it better to charge it and then drain the battery and then charge it and then use. Till how much percent should I keep using on the battery power and then connect the Magsafe connector?
    Please help people
    I'd highly appreciate if you could answer my questions.
    Thank you.

    I was told that it is best to keep it plugged in and connected to the charger when you can, but if you are not able to do that then just use battery power. I just know you don't want too many cycles, which means you don't want to drain the battery completely then fully recharge it. You should calibrate the battery, which is pretty much just draining battery then recharging it, every couple of months if you keep it plugged into the charger and don't use just the battery often.

  • Ten days away: what about the battery?

    Hi,
    I'm going to leave for ten (10) days, not bringing my iBook with me. It will stay OFF for all that time. What about the battery? Is it going to get stale? How much shoud I charge it before I leave?
    Right now I'm really proud of it: full charge = 6:30 hours!!!!
    Thanks,
    Stefano.

    Stefano -
    I'd say ten days would be OK without having to do anything special, here are a few links that talk about battery storage and other battery related information.

  • Paranoid about the battery

    Ok, I got my nano today and I have fallen in LOVE with it. Just wondered about the battery though. I got it out of the box, choved it on my Mac and away i went! It said it was fully charged after like an hour though - not even that? I took it out anyway, was I right to do that? Anyway, I was just thinking about this '12 hour battery life' thing, when are you likely to get this 12 hours? At a medium volume setting with minimum backlight etc?
    I just think the battery will go down a lot quicker (all of my friends iPods have *not so good* batteries so didn't want this to be a continuing problem)
    Thanks anyway
    ijmac

    I'm scared now though, this morning it said battery was empty and I needed to recharge, when recharging it didn't take 3 hours (I don't think) to recharge fully, it took less (maybe 2?)
    Also, when just unplugging the charged iPod the battery icon went down a bit? When i first got my nano, i charged it for like an hour (until it said fully charged), then as the icon went to half way, shoved it i again, soon after than i unplugged it to let it go all the way down to charge fully (as people recommend)
    Please don't say I've buggered up this wicked iPod =(
