Temark New A1495 A1406 Laptop Battery Compatible with MacBook Air 11'' A1465 A1370 (Mid 2011 2012 2013 Early 2014 2015 Version), fit MC968/A MD223/A MD711/A MD711/B MJVM2LL/A MJVP2LL/A

This is a pretty good battery, and honestly can't say I have anything to complain about on it. Pros: * Easy to install, the tools are included. * Good battery life, performs as expected Cons: * A tad expensive, compared to the other options. * A tool to help flip up the battery connector would be nice (like a guitar pick) The packaging of the battery is pretty straight forward. Comes in a fairly compact cardboard box. Two screwdrivers are included. The screwdrivers are of decent quality. I used them a little, but I already had my own tools so I didn't spend much with that. The battery comes in a plastic bag. The tools come in their own plastic bag too. There's padding on the top and bottom, the battery fits well. Installation was easy. The one thing that's worth mentioning is be very careful to get the right model of the battery. The 2011 battery has the connector to the left by a good 1/2 of an inch. Honestly, I'd actually suggest you unscrew the bottom of your laptop and verify you're buying the right one. The main benefit of this product is that the correct battery is sent on the first try. I bought another battery before this one, it was supposed to be right, and definitely wasn't. This one was right, so that's the benefit. If you haven't looked up how to replace the battery yet, it's a good idea to do that before you buy this. It's really simple, but still worth checking. The tl;dr is there are a number of screws to take off the bottom plate. After that, there are a good 6 screws to take out the battery. The battery clip is detached by flipping it up. Install is the reverse. No glue, no super difficult install. For battery durability and reliability. I did some burn in tests to verify that this battery works well. I charged it first, then ramped up all the CPUs/Cores to 100%. I let that run for about 45 minutes or so with the AC unhooked. It ran consistently with no issue. I then plugged in the AC again and let it charge while continuing the burn-in, and no overheating issues at all. It consistently works. I'll update this again if I run into any issues.

I was really nervous about dropping money for a battery replacement from a third party vendor, but this Temark battery is worth every penny. The battery works great! Battery life between charges lasts a tad longer than the original battery from Apple (based on my past 8 years using the stock Apple battery). It is extremely easy to install, especially since they include the tools you need to install the battery. I've owned the battery for about a month now, and have not had any problems. The previous stock battery bloated and nearly broke my keyboard (Apple knows about the defect), but with battery technology improvements I'm hoping that doesn't happen again with this Temark battery. Thanks to their great product and easy install, my MacBook Air lives again! It's practically like a new laptop, which is not bad for an 8 year old laptop. Also, Temark has excellent customer service. I didn't know that I should do a System Management Controller (SMC) reset on my MacBook Air after battery installation, as the battery percentage didn't read accurately. I contacted them through Amazon's messaging services when I noticed the problem and they promptly helped me out by telling me about the SMC reset and answered any other questions I had. If you're looking for a battery replacement for your MacBook Air, I think Temark is a solid choice. They also have a 6 month battery guarantee against battery defects, along with their willingness to help if you have any problems crop up. For $70 (give or take a few bucks), it's definitely worth it!

I just installed this over the weekend. Ease to install...great! the screwdrivers provided were a big help. Plugged the MacBook Air in and fully charged the battery. Once charged I wanted to see how long the battery would last. Once it got to about 48% my computer shut down. I had to plug in the charger to fire the computer back up. Fully charged it again. Second time I unplugged the charger, and tried using the computer again. The computer shut down again just under 50% on the battery life. These don't seem to be "new" batteries. It doesn't appear to hold it's charge. contacted an amazon person and was sent a replacement battery as it was obvious the first one must have been defective. Second battery shipped right out, was just as easy to install as the first one, and works like it should. It charges in a timely fashion, and discharges like a normal battery should. Once it gets low enough it prompts you to plug in. Much happier with the second battery.
