Even if your battery calibration gets disturbed, doing 4+ full cycles will recalibrate your battery and the capacity will go up again. To avoid this issue, we recommend doing at least one full cycle (0%-100%) every two weeks. However, this is only due to a disturbed battery calibration and not because of a faulty or degraded battery. When this happens, your Macbook might turn off with 40-50% left or your battery capacity will drop significantly. IMPORTANT: Keeping your battery at a lower percentage, such as under 80%, over weeks without doing full cycles (100%-0%) can result in a disturbed battery calibration. For example, if you set yours to 80% it will stop charging at around 83%, so be patient. Notice that in this state, your MacBook is still powered by the charger, but the battery is not charging anymore.įor some reason, macOS will always try to squeeze in a few more percent than specified. After a while, clicking on your battery icon will report 'Battery is not charging' if you have more than ≈73% left, even though your charger is connected. You can check if it's working by setting the max.
