should i replace the battery?

[hishat]

ok a mate of mine bought a macbook 2.1ghz model...its gone faulty so pc world are planning to exchange the macbook for a brand new one. no questions asked..just a matter of him going to the store to collect the new one.

my question is...

i have a 2.13ghz macbook...battery cycle 171....100% health

should i replace it for the one my mate has...its only done 2 cycles...

kinda worried i might get one of the batteries that get down to 40% health after 10 cycles...(estimates)


what do you think guys??

I'd go for it

I would definitely want to know...

why your mate's MB went down and hopefully it wasn't BATTERY related!

Do it.

Hi - batteries have serial nos too (like PC World will know that)

just swap them over - it will be fine !!!
