Incredible macbook battery life

After accidently removing the magsafe (glad this was invented) I had a incredible battery life of 61h and 57 min. This was at least shown to me for about half a minute, in which I have seemed to consume so much power, that only hardly 4h were left, afterwards. ; ) Have a look yourself!
I edited the photo with imagetricks, to cover Adium and to enlight the point I'm posting about.
Powerbook G4, 20" iMac G5 soon MacBook Mac OS X (10.4.6)

Yes, it does sometimes take a moment for it recalibrate itself. I've seen that happen on my Powerbook before, though it thought it had 9 hours left for a moment.

Macbook battery life on yosemite

Hi,
I updated my macbook air to yosemite and battery life has reduced. I just use word and safari for my work. No special softwares. Can anyone tell me the solution to this?
Thanks

So here is an update: I've followed the article posted by OGELTHORPE (Thank you!). What I actually did is 1. Reset the SMC and 2. Reset the PRAM (MacBook Air SMC and PRAM reset).
What I've seen so far: Once I did the reset, I would guess that the system needed to re-calcualte again the battery charge. Initially after I disconnected from power, it started with a measurement from under 3:30h. After 45 minutes running on battery it is showing again 8:45h remaining @ 93% charge. What I noticed is that every time I put the laptop to sleep this repeats - starting with some low time measurement and slowly climbing. I think that this could be a bug in the software and the battery charge calculation method is somehow not working properly. I wonder after those resets if the OS needs to get into a couple of battery charge cycles and the battery is calibrated again?
I don't recall having this issue with the last year's release of Mavericks.
I hope someone from Apple sees this and address this with the next OS X update.

Average Macbook Battery Life

I'm thinking about buying a 13-inch 2.13 GHz Macbook with a 4gb RAM upgrade. I was told that the average battery life of a Macbook is 5 hours. Is this about right?

Every manufacturer estimates battery life under conditions that almost no one would actually fine usable. My older BlackBook (with a newish battery) gets 3 to 3.5 hours without my trying at all hard. By making sure that all my applications are already running, turning off BlueTooth and WiFi, and turning down the backlight to the bare minimum, and saving files infrequently I can get just over 4 hours. I've never gotten close to 5.

Can MacBook battery life be as longer as MacBookPro

Hello
I had watched the new add about MacBookPro' s battery life and thought if I could use my MacBook up to 8 hours and if I could charge my MacBook up to 1000 times, which is also extremely a big number for charging cycles, it would be really great for my education. During some long meetings or presentations (like Apple Keynotes) I need some charging equipment and sometimes the electrical sysytem of the meeting rooms don't let me to recharge my MacBooks battery. So my question is "Can a kind of powerfull battery, like MacBookPro's, seperately sold for also other Apple remote products?"

Nope not available for anything except the 17" MBP.
If you want to maximize your battery life turn off bluetooth, IR in the security prefs unless you are using a remote device, wifi, and turn down your brightness a bit. Also make sure you are calibrating your battery to keep it in shape every 2-3 months. by charging to full and letting it charge for two more hours, letting it drain all the way, and then letting it sit discharged for at least 5 hours. Last, charge it fully.

Terrible Macbook battery life

Good morning all,
I recently purchased a MacBook (a thing of beauty) but seem to be having problems calibrating the battery. I have tried many times and can only seem to get about 1:30 out of it. I thought the battery was faulty so took it back to the Apple Store.... they replaced the entire computer. But this one seems to be the same.
To confirm:
Let the battery run flat ('till the computer goes to sleep)
Charge fully (not using the computer during this part of the process)
Run for at least two hours while plugged in (have been using it at this time)
Then run on batteries untill it goes to sleep
Leave alone for a least 5 hours
Fully recharge
I have the computer set to "normal" for battery use.
Any thoughts?
Joe

This step is not in the instructions nor is it needed with lithium ion batteries. Just let it charge fully for two hours. If the battery is not at 100% and not charging just let the MacBook run on battery until it drops below 93% and then let it charge.
Charge fully (not using the computer during this part of the process)
You can use the computer while doing this. It will not hurt anything.
Run for at least two hours while plugged in (have been using it at this time)
Then run on batteries untill it goes to sleep
Leave alone for a least 5 hours
Fully recharge
Once the charge cycle starts you can use the computer as long as it is plugged in. Do not unplug until it is fully charged or you will interrupt the charge cycle.
The life of the battery depends on all the things you have turned on and what you are doing. Watching movings and having bluetooth and airport running will affect battery life. Turn off anything your not using and see if that helps. One and a half hours does seem a tad short mine usually last at least two hours and that is pretty mach having everything running.
Look here and here for some good tips about battery care.

Macbook battery life, is there a problem If I keep it plugged almost all the time?

Hello.
New Mac user here, so I was wondering if there's a problem if I keep my MBP plugged all the time.
Most of the time I'm on my room using my MBP fully charged and I don't disconnect it.
Is there a problem with my batter life if I do that?
Or it's recommended to unplug and use it till the battery run off and then charge it again?
Because I work a lot on my MBP and that way in a simple day I could charge it and run uff the energy of the battery 2 to 3 times at day.
What's better for the life of my battery?
And if you could give me some advices to maintenance my battery and Macbook pro (also programs) I would appreciate it.
I own a Macbook Pro 13-inch, Mid 2012
2.9 GHz Intel Core i7

No. I do that most of the time. Perhaps monthly I discharge it to the 40% level to keep the battery happy. Do not discharge the battery completely. If you are forced to use only battery power and you see the battery is low warning terminate your session or plug into AC if you can.
Here are Apple articles with official battery usage guidelines:

Poor MacBook Battery Life

Hi,
I've owned my 13" Retina display for about a month. The most usage I get out of a full charge is 3 hours (keyboard lights off, screen dimmed a bit). All I'm using it for is reading articles and writing text/emails. No Photoshop or other big problems.
Meanwhile my friend can run his from 9am to 4pm daily without recharging.
This is really disappointing. The first powerbook I purchased I had to replace because it kept freezing. Now this.
Is there a solution?
Cheers.

futureperfect,
you’re still in your 90-day gratis Apple telephone support period — make use of it. Call Apple, get their recommendations (even if it’s “your battery is defective, bring back your MacBook Pro for a replacement unit”), try them out, and report back in your reply what worked for you, so that others can benefit from your experience.

Battery life suddenly cut in half

just yesterday, during my first class, i noticed that i only had about 2 hours left on my battery-- this was just about 15 minutes after unplugging my fully charged macbook. the same thing happened today...i don't know what's going on, i used to get around 4 hours with it. i haven't changed any habits-- i dim the screen as much as possible, etc.
i'm calibrating the battery right now...will that work or is something else wrong?

Hi,
Macbook battery life arouse lot of feedback. My experience is after re-calibration the total capcity of battery losts at least 100mAh. But if just connect to internet via airport, still I can manage to use it with over 3hrs. But when I run photoshops or bigger size file, the time shown on menu bar dropped tremendously to 1:50hr somethg from 3:03hr. But this battery seems to last quite good at last few %. My experiences on powerbook G4 1G, with 1.25G DDR ram, when battery drops to 10% or 10 minutes, the Powerbook will go to sleep soon. But for Macbook, when the indicator shows 0:09 hr remained, if using for internet it can still last for more than 15minutes. I also asked Apple HK technician about the battery drop problem, they said this is just rough estimation, sometimes not accurate, and it is normal that battery sometimes can't charged back 100% full unless after recalibration. If ur cases after full charge, check if ur battery is 100% or below 90% uisng coconut, Apple said if under warranty the battery drop below 90% for full charge, u can replace the battery in Apple repair center. This is the case in HK , I am not sure the practise in ur country.

Battery life drained while using itunes

My macbook battery life is being drained while using itunes. I have checked the activity monitor and the CPU usage is up to 14-16 while on most macbooks, its at an average of 4 or 5. I've updated the software and even tried going back to the original software it came with. What's the best solution for this issue?

I have the 13 inch macbook pro bought in august 2011,the battery life instead of 7 hours lasts only for 3-4 hours why is this so

i was very impressed when i saw the 7 hour battery life of the macbook 13 in the store . but after using the system it only lasted 3-4 hours completely , same was the case for windows 7 pro. all the other functions of my mac are working fine.I buyed the system pin packed in front of me.I questioned the retailer about this but he had no clue what was happenig which caused this.I think this has something to do with china as my mac has been assembled in china and designed by apple californiahttp://computershopper.com/laptops/reviews/apple-macbook-pro-13-inch-2011-versio n these are the specs and the review of the system.but remove the phenominal battery life from the pros.I'm new to apple so please also provide me a location where i can get apple support in Pakistan

The 7 hour battery life is maximum that can be expected with minimal drain, but 3-4 hours either means you are using it very, very hard or the battery is bad. OR the gauge needs calibration, see below.
Turn off WiFi if you are not using it, and dim the display to also save battery power. It also depends on the applications that you are using.
One months is awfully fast for you to lose that much battery time. If the laptop was new, then I would talk to the seller about an exchange, at least exchanging the battery.
Have you tried calibrating the battery? See
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=Mac/10.6/en/9036.html
for how. Please note, this only calibrates when the MBP charges the battery and resets the calibration of time or percentage of battery charge left. The lithium battery does not have a memory.

Just bought a mid 2012 13 in macbook pro. Battery life is only 3 hours. Thoughts?

Just bought a mid 2012 13 in macbook pro. Battery life is only 3 hours. I was under the impression that it would last 7 hours. This is with normal internet browsing and text editing. my brightness is not all the up and bluetooth is off. Thoughts?

im having the same problems, bought my 13" MacBook Pro last week and the battery is terrible on it, but i googled it and a lot of other people are having the same issues

Mid-2013 Macbook Air Battery Life has become awful-Not Mavericks related

I have a Mid-2013 Macbook Air that I bought in July. i5, 1.3 GHz, 8GB RAM, 500 GB SSD. I honestly thought that my horrible battery life was due to the recent upgrade to Mavericks (many MBAir users are having problems with 10.9), so I downgraded to 10.8.5 this AM. With my backlit keyboard off and the screen at a mid-level of brightness, I am barely getting 2hrs of battery life. Before I go make an appointment with the Apple Genius, I was wondering whether anyone has any suggestions. I saw other threads on this issue, but none of them seem to really help. Below is the EtreCheck file (there seems to be a lot of Symantec traffic, but I am not sure that is the cause). Also, I am also running "hidden" so I wonder if the constant location services are draining the battery. Again, any help would be greatly appreciated. Many thanks.

Yes,
After Mavericks install, your "time remaining" WILL BE INACCURATE until you do a SMC reset in many case
SMC reset
Shut down the computer.
Plug in the MagSafe power adapter to a power source, connecting it to the Mac if its not already connected.
On the built-in keyboard, press the (left side) Shift-Control-Option keys and the power button at the same time.
Release all the keys and the power button at the same time.
Press the power button to turn on the computer.
There is a HUGE distinction here about someone getting less batt. life in actuality .......or are they just reading the "time remaining" and using that as a true indicator which is certainly is not.
Ive seen 3 notebooks after SMC reset jump 4+ hours in "time remaining" and slowly climb after 3+ full charge cycles.
Until things settle down, nobody should trust what the 'time remaining' says.

Mid-2010 unibody 15-inch macbook pro battery life

The battery on my son's mid-2010 15-inch unibody macbook pro has a cycle count of 360 and shows its condition is "normal." What is the normal battery life on this computer? The reason I'm asking is that the trackpad is malfunctioning and he was told the battery could be the cause of the problem.

Macbook Air Poor Battery Life

I have a mid-2012 Macbook air and I've noticed recently my battery life is horrible. I've read every single other thread about this issue but nothing really helped and even the most recent is from a couple of years ago. Obviously now it's 2015 and my macbook is running on Yosemite, so its not the battery issue that everyone seemed to have with Mavericks.
Just writing that small section I went from 73% to 68% and at the current 68% I only get an estimated 2 hours and 10 minutes remaining. I've also had only Safari running this whole time.
Option clicking the battery icon reveals that the condition is normal, as well as the power system report. It also has gone through only 441 cycles, no where near its 1000 cycle "limit" and its health is already down to 77%. While obviously the condition is normal and doesn't say I need to replace the battery I feel that I should, based off of everything else.

Have macbook air from mid 2012 - I installed Yosemite November 2014 and since then I'm having problem with my battery - it has been draining super fast - 4hrs battery life now compared to earlier 8hrs.
I reinstalled Yosemite, didn’t help and then made a clean reinstallation of Yosemite about 5 days ago and there is still the same drain issue.
Thank you in advance!

Macbook Air Terrible Battery Life

There are a series of threads on these forums regarding the rare case where Macbook Airs get terrible battery life on Mavericks, and some of them have numerous posts telling you to make a new thread about your specific issue. Here's mine.
The issues began when I did my initial Mavericks update. I had a series of really bad things happen, so I did a cmd+R reboot, and reinstalled the OS. It didn't help, so I scheduled a Genius appointment, and they wiped the drive and installed Mavericks clean.
All of the issues are gone now, except for one: my computer gets less than half the life it did on Mountain Lion. I used to get 14-16 hours of battery life on Mountain Lion when nothing was running. I just charged it to 100% and had just 6 hours of estimated life.
I've reset both the PRAM and the SMC, and neither helped. Might you have any further ideas on how to fix this?
Note: I know that Google Chrome is less energy efficient than other browsers. With that said, I used to still get well over 10 hours at 98-100% battery life on Mountain Lion with Chrome open. My usage of Google Chrome is a constant in this equation; this issue can't be so easily dismissed as being an issue with Chrome, I think.
Here's a screenshot showing a number of things (no apps being open, the poor battery life, and activity monitor)

This may be because Spotlight is indexing your harddrive, do not interrupt it before it's finished and then it'll be much faster and your battery while behave normally if not better !
