2013 Mac Air 100% battery=2hours 30 minutes

Hi Everyone,


I bought my Mac Air in September 2013. Yesterday I was pretty amazed that Apple advertises 10 hours of battery life on Mac Air.

On the picture you see 98% battery and remainting time 2 hours 34 minutes. Kind of low right? Anybody with the same issue here?


Thanx a lot for help!

The time "remaining" estimate is (just that an estimate) is currently inaccurate in some instances in Mavericks, others report same and much testing on my own of several machines indicate the same.


This however does not affect the ACTUAL battery life.


recommend the free APP called coconut battery and checking via mAh of charge rather than a time "remaining" indicator until this is resolved

Or can contact Apple for free service and/or in shop diagnostic as you are entitled to same.


Peace
