Lasted less than 6 months for me. It worked great and then just stopped charging one day. I have to keep it plugged in all the time now. If I unplug it at all it turns right off.

It lasts about the same but it seems to run a little hotter so make sure it has plenty of air flow or it will make your computer temporarily seize up.

I'm sorry I cannot answer your question because I ordered the wrong battery from Amazon and was unable to return it because 30 days were up before I took the battery out of the box and that was the time alotted for a return. I ended up [urchasing the right size battery at my local office supply store for twice the price.

I think it will last about the same time. I don't use my computer so much anymore, so it is difficult for me to assess.

The stock battery is kinda small, pick up a 1600mAh and you should get about 8-10 minutes. Don't feel bad, the really big and fast boats that go 60mph plus only last about 2-3 minutes!

I was able to use the stock battery for nearly two months. I used it for a total of about 30 seconds a day, 5-10 times per week.

I also agree with Andrew. I bought this battery and simply installed it and it has worked fine ever since (more than 3 months now). I went from about 6 hours per day of life to now about 12 under normal use.

The fit is good, but not seamless as MAC OEM, it does perform well, say if your original MAC battery lasted for 3hrs, this new battery will render 2 1/2 hrs. Good luck.

Much faster. Where the stock charger takes about 10-12 hours, this take less than 2 depending on the size is the battery.

I am sorry that I am unable to answer that question. Since this battery was New Old Stock it wouldn't stay charged and I was unable to use it.

The stock Nimh battery lasts about 12 minutes on a full charge. I recommend upgrading to lipo power asap

I've had this battery for slightly under 2 months and am quite satisfied with it so far. It holds a charge for 3-4 hours. It's duration depends a lot of course on your laptop's power settings, like screen brightness.

stock battery is NiMH and it goes for about 20 minutes. I upgraded the batteries to LiPo for the fun factor and goes about 30 minutes. I put a fan on the motor to help the heat. Batteries are expensive but get a decent pair of 3s LiPOs and you will be happy.

Couldn't tell you, mine only lasted 1 1/2 days. I replaced the battery and it lasted another 1 1/2 days.

When battery is full it shows 2 hours 30 minutes. I don't think I get quite that much, but it's pretty close to that.

These batteries don't have the capacity to hold a charge for very long. This one actually has a little more capacity than the OEM. I get an hour or more with it at least and about 20 or 30 minutes with the original that came with my computer. It also charges fast.

in the beginning the same time as the original,but after 3 months of use one of the batteries is swollen a lot and it hold 5 hours max in no heavy use ,the other battery is still holding a little better 7 hours.Medium time of the original battery is around 9 -10 hours no heavy use.
