My pismo with the new OWC long life batteries got 5:02 on the meter and then dropped to a respectable 4:45! WOW so happy!!!!!!!!!!!!

As for the G4 PB 17" that I've been complaining about low battery time and the OLD 10.2.8 old build, the new build is installed and I have just depleted the battery for a new battery calibration. But it looks good because before running it down to 0 Percent on battery power with airport extreme on and bluetooth searching for devices and processor on FUll Power, it lasted 3 hours and something minutes! REadout AND run down actual TIME......

THANK YOU APPLE!
MY HONEY IS BACK ON TRACK...

WILL POST AGAIN ONCE IT RECALIBRATES tomorrow morning...
