I tried an SMC reset today, and it changed nothing. It still just dies right around 20%. (At least, I think I reset the SMC. There wasn't any obvious feedback confirming that I had done so.)
- mikeash 11y agoYeah, the SMC reset procedure is pretty opaque. Sounds like you're probably at the point of needing a repair. Hope you're in warranty, although given how these things go I imagine you're probably not.
- rcthompson 11y agoNah, I've had it a few years, so it's out of warranty. I'll probably have to replace the battery eventually. I don't mind if the battery's capacity is decreasing, I just want it to auto-sleep before the battery dies. Maybe there's a way to set the auto-sleep threshold to 25% or something?
