Thanks! Just replaced the battery in my husband’s mid-2012 MacBook Pro. Easy peasy!

@jeffreyesguitar5129 23 дня назад

Thanks! It had been a while since I replaced stuff on one. I forgot about the triwing screws lol

Thank you. It was very helpful for me. Your super clear explanations along the way were very detailed. I was able to replace mine. Same model. And thanks for the tips to help prevent the same issue from happening again. The first time I had it replaced I did take it to a professional dedicated to do this things. Now I was able to do it on my own.

Thank you for your clear step by step video and the reminder about the needed battery complete cycles of discharge/charge.

@TallJoshhh 7 месяцев назад

Using in 2024 and still a great video🙌 Saved me a ton of money and time! Quick question, can i use the computer while im discharging the battery(play a game on it)? Or does it need to discharge with no applications running?🤔

@Rickmakes 7 месяцев назад

You can use it while discharging.

Thank you! My trackpad is starting to fail so I’m going to def use this tutorial !

@cyronader Год назад

my original battery has 2227 cycles on it lol. I tried several battery replacements and they all failed within 3-4 months. Seems no one is making a decent aftermarket battery for the 2012.

@doctahjonez Год назад

Same except the batteries ive tried don't last any longer than the original

Thanks for video. My MacBook Pro is mid 2012 and says A1398 on the back of it. What battery would it take and how do I know if its old battery is glued in place? I assume if it’s glued in place, I probably shouldn’t try the battery to replace it then. Right?

@meenakhatri8637 Год назад

Thank you so much, mine is now at 71% health after 900 charge cycles and 11 years. Time to replace battery now...

@afifprapmana Год назад

how to check those things?

@jovannavalladares7546 Год назад

Hi! This looks fairly easy- looking to replace mine. I have a 15in Mac Book pro from 2012. Do you know what battery would be the equivalent of the one you have? Thanks!

Great vid! Is this the same battery that lasted you 5 years? I’ve fully upgraded my MacBook and now I’m looking for a replacement battery since I’m at 1200 cycles on mine thanks

What do you call with the magnetic screw you use?

Does this help the computer run for longer? The battery I have in now runs out in an hour

@Rickmakes 8 месяцев назад

It should run longer with a new battery.

I read many negative reviews on Amazon for this particular battery. Can anybody recommend a good replacement?

@hungchung2726 4 месяца назад

Its the same thing happen to mine, I kept it plugged in so the battery swell and affect the trackpad.

@kamaboko1 5 месяцев назад

It has been a year since this battery was installed. Is there a follow up video regarding its longevity?

@udemezueemeka6268 Год назад

Thank so so much. Your video helped so much!!!!

@AfricanFlightStar Год назад

Fantastic! Just what I needed to know, and thanks for the small bits of detail that make all the difference, new subscriber, cheers! Mine is a mid 2012 15" Macbook Pro, need to find a replacement battery, new 1TB SSD drive, and new SSD drive ribbon cable for that model, any suggestions appreciated, thank you!

@Rickmakes Год назад

I like Samsung SSDs. Not sure about the battery for cable for that model.

@andrevrd Год назад

When you install the new battery must you not plug it in at all until it has powered down?

@Rickmakes Год назад

You can charge it up to 100% and then unplug and run it until it turns off.

@citydiscorecords8045 Год назад

My trackpad wont click down on new batttery install but the old one still allows trackpad to work any idea why?

@Rickmakes Год назад

Your old battery was bulged? I wonder if something was permanently bent in the trackpad.

@freetobe3 Год назад

I recently bought a spares A1278, to swap parts with mine. The battery bulged enough to permanently compromise the trackpad. I put my old battery which is in better shape and not blown up like the one it had and the trackpad still works but the clicking mechanism doesn't work well on the side most covered by the battery but tapping works just fine.

@Jeff92singer Год назад

I have a mid 2012 MacBook Pro, its battery has a bit more than 400 cycles, and it lasts a bit more than 3 hours. Would the battery replacement be any better? P.S.: Mine is currently running MacOS Catalina.

@Rickmakes Год назад

I would download the Coconut Battery app and see what percentage of the design capacity you have. www.coconut-flavour.com/coconutbattery/ This will give you an idea what percentage you have different from a new battery.

@Marinate305 11 месяцев назад

How’s the battery holding up 9 months later?

@Rickmakes 11 месяцев назад

It is working well. This computer is often plugged in so I am working on power cycling and re-calibrating the battery regularly so it doesn't overcharge.

@hirprimate941 Год назад

Did the original battery have glue holding it down?

@Rickmakes Год назад

No glue on this model. It's a pretty easy swap.

@victorwild3312 11 месяцев назад

what if it doesnt charge the battery ?

@Rickmakes 10 месяцев назад

If you don't charge the battery, it can go bad.

@kluttklutt2930 Год назад

People look to much at the battery cycles! The age of the battery is just as important!! Its chemicals! They get old! People should swap their batterys every 2-3 years to turn their phones and computer up to the speed it was as new …

@Rickmakes Год назад

Good point. Calendar aging is just as important as cycles for many people.

@kluttklutt2930 Год назад

That syringe…. My god! Thats stupid! You can use something better!

never anything sharp and not metal to close to a lithium ion battery. especially not pouch lithium ion.

@kluttklutt2930 Год назад

And people use isopropanol insted much better to work with… aceton fumes make u sick… iso smell ”nice”

@Rickmakes Год назад

If you are using so much solvent that the smell is bothersome, you are using too much. I recommend using a small syringe so you can apply tiny amounts. Either solvent can be used but I feel like acetone works better. Either can make you sick. After all, the body metabolizes isopropyl alcohol into acetone.
