DON'T DO IT! Look elsewhere. I returned this battery for a refund as soon as I could - this battery would not even allow units plugged into my USB ports to charge.

Nope, this one won't do it, and it will warp and possibly explode after 1 year of use.

This is not the battery for you. It will last maybe 2 hours on the first full charge then only work for about 45 minutes and die sporadically with no warning.

You can still buy brand new replacement batteries for these for about $75. On a new battery, this machine will run 3-4 hours on a single charge. When the battery gets old, as in any laptop, it won't hold for more than a few minutes. But that has nothing to do with this particular model of computer. That is true of any computer and any rechargeable battery system. Depending on which one you get, you might get 30 minutes or 3 hours of batter life. It's impossible to know. Ask the seller. If the batter is less than a year old,you will get very good battery life out of it ... at least 2 hours. You can still buy brand new replacement batteries for these for about $75.

I got somewhat less than 2 hrs (but I wasn't doing much other than moving the mouse to keep the screen from going to sleep) - about what I expected. This is a basic (6-cell) battery. there are extended (9-cell) batteries that will last longer. Also important to follow the "break-in" procedure (full charge - full drain - full charge, etc). Some laptops may have to "learn" how to charge a new battery before it can do it efficiently, and fully.

It will work just don't expect the charge to last as long as the original Apple battery. If I use my laptop a lot during the day the charge won't last for more than a few hrs and it's still fairly new.

I have had this computer for approximately 14 months and my battery holds charge now for only about an hour to 90 minutes. I am having difficulty finding another one, can someone please tell me what replacement battery would work? thanks!

My battery charge has reliably lasted 3 to 4 hours depending on what I'm doing on my computer.

I might not have understood your question, in that you want the time a battery will last, once charged (hours)? Since I turn my computer off and on there is no way that I can tell how many hours I get on a complete charge, couldn't even guess.

Honestly, I don't know what the lifespan is of this battery. You may want to contact the manufacturers, apple store, newegg.com or any authorized retailers directly for accurate info. and response because I had to return mine to the advertised seller as soon as it arrived because it didn't meet up with expectation. The above mentioned areas can help satisfy your curiosity.

depending on how many processes you are running will determine the charge life. I'm getting 3-4 hours. I wish someone in the windows world could develop a battery like my apple products which get 10+ hours. hope this helps.

Hi Hala, I have the macbook pro early 2011. Mine is also the A1286 model, so the battery should work for your mbp.

This battery lasts longer than the battery that came with my laptop originally. It may last three hours but I have not needed it that long yet.

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.

It depends on a number of factors, the type of laptop, the load on the laptop (what activities you're doing), etc... On my 15" MacBook Pro I can get between 2.5-3hrs out of the battery with a higher than average load. So you'd probably be able to stretch it even further if you're just doing basic web browsing, or using a less power laptop such as a MacBook Air.

I have the dv4-2167sb and bought this battery. It seems to work well for my computer and lasts about 4 hours.
