ifixit battery with 336 loadcycles already at 36% capacity

I’ve replaced my battery using an iFixit kit last June. The first battery they send to me was defective and after contacting the support I’ve got a now one in replacement for free. After some months I’m noticing when I open coconut battery that the battary capacity is at 35% and this is very strange.

Not good! You’ll need to contact the iFixit Customer Support to get a warranty replacement.

But I've alredy contacted them the first time, I don't think they will get in touch for this problem anymore? It can be a lot of defecte batteries ?

@ziobru - So the email is too much work or is the call going to set you back a weeks wages?

Come on! Nothing ventured nothing lost ?? Please contact them.

I have no idea if they had a bad lot. Ask them! In any case the battery is still under there warranty and they will honor it!

You're right, I will send them an email today to ask for support about this issue. I hope to be more lucky this time. I've read some comments of peoples who had the same problem with the battery they send them for the fix. I think that they had a bad batteries lot, I will ask also for this. PS: While I'm writing this comment, after charged the macbook to use it today at work, I've noticed that the capacity decreased to 32% :( !
