Battery Replacement
Genuine battery replacements to restore your MacBook's battery life.
About This Service
Is your MacBook battery draining faster than it used to, not holding a charge, or showing a "Service Battery" warning? Over time, all lithium-ion batteries degrade and lose their capacity to hold a charge. Apple considers a battery consumed when it reaches 1,000 charge cycles or falls below 80% of its original capacity. Our professional battery replacement service will restore your MacBook to its original battery life, allowing you to work unplugged for hours again. We use genuine Apple batteries where available, or high-quality cells that meet or exceed Apple specifications for safety and performance. All our replacement batteries are safety tested and come with a full 1-year warranty.
MacBook batteries are glued in place and require careful removal to avoid damaging other components. DIY battery replacement is not recommended as incorrect removal can damage the logic board, trackpad, or speakers. If your MacBook battery is visibly swollen, stop using it immediately and contact us for urgent repair a swollen battery is a safety hazard.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I know if my MacBook battery needs replacing?
Check System Settings > Battery > Battery Health. If maximum capacity is below 80% or it shows "Service Recommended", replacement is advised. Signs include rapid battery drain, unexpected shutdowns, visible swelling, or the MacBook only working when plugged in.
Do you use genuine Apple batteries?
We use genuine Apple batteries from donor machines where available. When genuine batteries are not available, we use high-quality OEM alternatives that meet Apple specifications for capacity, safety, and performance.
How long does a MacBook battery replacement take?
Most battery replacements are completed within 1-2 working days. The actual replacement takes 1-2 hours, but we perform full testing and calibration before returning your MacBook.
How many charge cycles should a MacBook battery last?
Apple rates most modern MacBook batteries for 1,000 charge cycles while retaining 80% of original capacity. A charge cycle is using 100% of capacity (not necessarily in one go), so charging from 50% to 100% twice equals one cycle.
