I purchased &amp; received this battery 2 days back but it is running for only 2 hours on battery although says 100% charged. Kindly suggest?

The battery that I received is not even recognized by my mac, I tried it in two other macs as well and it did the same thing. Consider yourself lucky that you got one that actually works for a couple of hours. I will not by products from this seller ever again.

Contact the company. Battery sounds defective. They promptly sent me a replacement when I told them. Replacement battery has been flawless for 1.5 yrs. NO complaints.See my review for details:http://www.amazon.com/review/RUZWUM3ZAKBZ4/ref=cm_cr_pr_perm?ie=UTF8&ASIN;=B00B2RS4VW

I've been testing mine out recently - I run for about 2hours, 2hours 15 mins. It usually lasts 2 such days - so 4- 4 1/2 hours- which is quite disappointing. I have a feeling indoor battery life maybe slightly better. I was looking for the "rated" battery like myself. Would be nicer if it went a week without charge.

It has been awhile, but initial charge of 40 hours is too much. You have a defective product. Possibly a bad battery.

My battery is still working fine. I only use it about every two weeks. I've only had it a few months.

How do I find out what is wrong with this battery? I did not know that you aren't supposed to use the regular battery tenders on these kind of batteries and I left it charging for a couple of days and now it is beyond dead. So if the tender didn't kill it, apparently (also read just now in the questions section) if it drops below 8% charge it is no longer anything but a paperweight? So tell me now if I should just go out and buy a new battery after wasting my money on the 1 ride I got out of this battery.

I'm sorry to hear that. Mine seems to be working fine. I've used mine for more than 6 minutes. Make sure it is fully charged before using it.

I purchased the same battery LB1 High Performance Battery and after charging it for about 20 minutes, the light goes out on my computer,so something is wrong.It is not working like the factory battery did when it was new. Not satisfied here with the battery.

Sorry for the delay. The battery I purchased for my laptop is working great. Only $20-25 dollars and working like it did when I first got it. Holds a charge for 6-8 hours if I am not watching a movie. Really pleased with the purchase.

Did you charge the battery for the length of time indicated in the instruction manual prior to use? The first time or two I used mine the battery ran down pretty fast. After recharging it, the battery definitely held a charge longer than it did initially. If it continues to not maintain the charge as long as you think it should, I would contact the manufacturer or return it.

I can tell you that the battery is probably refurbished. I fit, although not completely flush like the original. When I first received the battery it held a charge for about an hour and a half, but now that it is several months old it lasts maybe an hour. This battery is a good bargain if you are not looking for hours of battery time. My mac tells me to "service battery" meaning that it probably is not functioning normally or about its behavior to hold a charge. The caveat is that we get what we pay for.

this is a poor quality battery, it only holds its charge for 30 minutes. what a rip off, or it could be that this new battery is defective. I wrote to amazon about getting a replacement, but no reply....

Contact the seller. I've had this battery for 2 or 3 years and have not had this issue.
