This product does not work properly. I have a battery that is three years old. It now only gives me about 10 minutes of charge.It was rated by ibatt yesterday and today as a D-, however in the last hour it is now showing up as an A+ , My charging light is on, but the % charge stays at 0% and ibatt gives an error code in the "state" ErrCode: 0x87. No where in the documentaion can I find anything about this error code. My battery is charging, and is holding a charge but is not registering a %. What is ridiculous is ibatt is telling me "Your battery is in excellent health. No higher capacity batteries have been reported for your computer model."
give me a break, $15.00 to be lied too? I can be lied to for free, All I have to does is watch TV.

I have heard reports of this problem... it is very rare. It seems that when a battery gets really low on power, or if a PowerBook's PMU isn't working properly, the capacity can be a really off the wall number. Usually it seems like batteries that are very worn out will report exceptionally high capacities. It makes no sense to me... but iBatt is reporting on what it gets from the battery.-Ty
