It's how many times you've charged your battery to it's peak.

The more you charge it the less power it holds over time and then you'll have to replace it.

You only have 13 cycles so you'll be good for a few years yet.

491 cycles. Coming up to 2 years on the macbook (white model before unibody).

Want to get a macbook pro but going to wait until I actually need a new machine before buying.

[imhim]

so how many cycles before it dies or u need to replace the battery?

[Guest FA23]

its meant to do at least 1000 cycles before it hits 80% maximum battery life...

that battery thing flojo said mine was on 42months so 944 cycles and 89% battery capacity life is pretty decent.

f*ck*ng GOOGLE IT YOU c*nt.

i swear down. and stop buying your macbook from dodgey nipesh down the road, its no wonder why your battery isnt holding a charge, i get 4-5 hours battery use out of my macbook a day, with ease.

its not enuf... its supposed to be a macbook pro ffs... the normal macbook is 10 hrs - wot type of life is dis...

maybe this one requires more power because of the components used are more power hungry?

Do you constantly leave yours charged, even when its charged 100%?

/

I swear a cycle is just when the battery goes down to roughtly 10% and then charged back up to 100%?

if you never unplug the laptop from being charged you wont rack up any cycles?
