Macbook Pro battery draining while plugged in
Basically, I'll be using the MacBook Pro while plugged into the wall, and the battery charge will drain despite this. For example: Last night when I was finished using my MacBook, it had a full charge, and said "Charged" on the menu bar. This morning when I started it up and plugged it in, everything was fine: Still "Charged", and the powerlight on the mag connector was green. Fast forward to lunch, and despite not having unplugged the laptop, now it's listed as having 17% battery charge. It was also running off of the Power Adapter according to the drop down on the menu bar, so the adapter was supplying power for sure. In fact, when I unplugged the power adapter, the screen dimmed, and the battery level dropped from 17% to 13%.
I'm a bit concerned that the system was plugged in, running off the power adapter, and somehow was draining the battery. Is this cause for alarm? Is my laptop battery going bad after four months? Any help would be appreciated! Thanks.
