Mac: Over time, your battery’s lifespan decreases, eventually reaching the point where it won’t hold a charge nearly as long as when you bought it. Free app coconutBattery gives you detailed info on your battery’s health over time.
A lot of this information you can get from OS X already, but coconutBattery puts it into a really simple, readable window: you can see your current charge, the current maximum capacity of your battery, and the original capacity of your battery when you bought i. You can even pull out a panel and save your data at any given point, so that over time you can see how much your battery’s health degenerates — and take the necessary steps to keep it lasting as long as possible.
