How long did your old was your MBP when you changed over? How long would it run on full charge?
thanks

As stated, it was a 2011 MacBook Pro and this past summer

it was tested due to an extended power outage and it ran

for a good 4 hours tethered to my iPhone 11 Pro running

in full performance mode (no screen dimming, no processor

throttling). For a 9 year old laptop I thought that was pretty

darn good.
