Just bought an iFixit battery, capacity already down to 93.9%

I installed an iFixit battery a week ago and calibrated it as directed. I just checked the battery's capacity - it has 93.9% of its design capacity. At this rate I'll need to replace the battery again in a matter of months.

Is there anything that I can do? Would recalibrating it work?

Answer this question I have this problem too

Is this a good question?

Let’s get a better view, install this gem of an App CoconutBattery with the charger connected and open up the battery info tab, take a snapshot of the apps main window and post it here for us to see.

@rbouwens - Let’s get the battery fully charged. Give it a full 10 hrs on the charger turned off. Let’s see where things are then.

@rbouwens - Contact the iFixit store, this battery is on the edge, you may need to see where it is in a month or so. IFixit has a full year so waiting is not an issue.
