My laptop isn't warning me when the battery is low
Here's the story. My laptop (apple PowerBook G4 battery ) got a little damaged earlier this year and had to have the motherboard replaced, as it wouldn't respond to AC power. Ever since I've had the motherboard replaced, my apple iBook G3 battery life has gotten worse, and now the "apple iBook G4 battery Percentage Left" and the "apple PowerBook G3 battery Time Left" are unequal, causing my laptop battery to get low without a warning sign popping up. So I'll be working on something and my comp will go into hibernation because the apple A1078 battery is low, with no prior warning! Do I need to buy a newapple A1012 battery , or is there a way to correct the apple M8511 battery life vs. battery time thing? My laptop is only a year and a half old, I thought theapple M6091 battery would last longer before it would start doing this stuff.
