What the user wants and what the Battery can deliver to the computer may not be one and the same.
Batteries do loose the ability to hold a reasonable charge over time and need replacements.
The fact this 2015 computer in 2022 equals 7 years maybe be telling the user that it can not provide the Extra Time before a Warning of Low Battery is presented.
Have taken enough of your time and wish you good luck with this issue

How may Full Battery Cycles has this computer experienced ?
Batteries are considered Consumable Products.
Over time it will degrade to a point where it needs to be replaced.
The usage is normal as the capacity will go up and down all the time and never stay always at 100%.
Apple Batteries are rated for 1000 Full Battery Cycles and / or 80% Capacity before needing Evaluation or replacement.
Hi. I only get the low battery warning about a minute before the mac shuts down. I would like to get more than a minute's warning. Are you saying that low power will accomplish this? thanks a lot.
Are you in a situation where AC power is not available?
no. my model air book was purchased in 2015. thanks.
Thanks but I am only concerned with getting more than a minute warning of a low battery before my 2015 air book shuts down. How can I do this?
Thanks so much!!!!!!
You are welcome and thank you too
