MacBook Air battery health

Bought an ifixit battery for my Macbook air early 2015. Battery health went from 96% 2 cycles to 93% 5 cycles to now 89% 9 cycles.

Hi @vodwills,

I received some troubleshooting steps you can try to fix this. Head over to our support page to learn how to calibrate your battery. The summary says it’s for batteries not charging after installation, however, it can help with many types of battery problems.

Let me know if this helps!

@amber - FYI: The newer MacBook systems from 2016 onward don't need calibration! They use a different SMC logic.
