So I just got my new Macbook Air 2013 13 inch, and on OS X Mountain Lion, I got about 10/11 hours on 100% battery. Whereas on OS X Mavericks, I got 14hrs on 80%. Have they added battery life improvements or somthing, or is it just co incidence? My brightness is always half full and both times I checked nothing else was running.
Thanks a lot,

yes, HUGE IMPROVEMENT now with Mavericks on battery life due to minimized APP power management

Ahhh, I though it would be somthing along that lines. Thanks a lot man! 🙂
I'm also experiencing the same boost in battery life (2013 MBA 256 GB i5 Haswell). Running Word, Endnote x7, Safari, iTunes and more for 14+ hours on a single charge with ease. I've used my macbook air for over 6 hours today and only dropped 30% in battery capacity. So the results in the picture are a good example of the improvement in battery life!
