    Hi Breden,

     

    Hope you are doing good !! But the issue in discussion is real - earlier my Mac-Air was giving me 12 hours of Battery back-up but now after the update - this has become pathetic. Please hashtag the same and you will find many facing the same issue. We are looking for immediate resolution - you help will be highly appreciated !!

     

    Thanks
