Welcome to a Laptop Battery specialist of the Apple Laptop Battery
Last fall, the Magazine ran a great article by John Hockenberry about the problems with batteries. If you haven’t read it, stop what you’re doing now and do so. It’s totally fascinating. Batteries are absolutely essential to most things in life, but they are shockingly unreliable — and unsophisticated. Consider this: In the last 150 years, battery performance has increased eightfold. Microprocessors do that every six years.
So it’s little surprise that batteries blow up and bulge and do weird things all the time. We push them beyond their actual capabilities. The above image comes courtesy of an unfortunate soul named Brian, whose lovely MacBook Pro suddenly shut off in while watching a movie. Then it did it again, and then the battery such as Apple Presario R4145EA Battery , Apple A1175 Battery , Apple A1185 Battery , Apple A1189 Battery , Apple A1245 Battery , Apple A1280 Battery , Apple A1281 Battery , Apple E68043 Battery , Apple LBCAP8 Battery , Apple M6091 Battery , Apple M7318 Battery cells tried to escape their banks. There are more images through the link. I’ve heard mumblings about this for awhile, but it’s clearly not a fluke at this point. Anyone else dealing with this?
But the best advice is to put expectations into perspective. "This is as much a computer as a phone," says Matt Murphy, who heads Kleiner-Perkins' iFund, a $100 million initiative that seeds iPhone apps. "You don't expect a computer to last for 24 hours on one charge."
Since that first meltdown, by taking battery- extending measures like switching off push mail, data fetch, and sometimes (sniff) 3G, I have only occasionally had a day where I needed to break out the charger before bedtime. One day we'll get that quantum leap in battery tech that will obviate the annoying trade-off between functionality and juice. Until then, it's so many apps to play with, so little time between charges.
