I appreciate you posting this video. I helped me swap out my a1708 battery with ease :)

Thanks very much.. I just saved so much by replacing the battery under your guidance.

Professional work thank you very much

[@keegan449]

Great guide, did mine in about 40 min. Working the adhesive off the battery took the longest. Thanks!

[@150daysofwinter]

Glad it helped

[@ingomarcelh8046]

Many many thanks, you helped me a lot with this video! Everything works!

[@150daysofwinter]

Glad it helped!

[@mcaleck]

You're a champ, thanks a bunch!

[@PaulHaggar]

Great job thank you kindly

Very helpful video. Thankyou for that. Do you have any idea how to recalibrate the battery so the system knows to do whatever it has to do? Or is this all just an automatic process

[@150daysofwinter]

Ifixit, who i buy most of my batteries from, recommend the following. Charge new battery to 100% and keep charging it for at least 2 hours. Then use your laptop until the battery runs out. Finally charge it uninterrupted to 100%.

[@GarySchiltz]

Very nice video. Question: did you remove the trackpad in order to protect it from the adhesive remover liquid? Suggestion: I'm even more OCD than you, but I would have used a single-edged razor blade to remove the adhesive strips, and then cleaned the surface with some of the adhesive remover.

[@150daysofwinter]

haha. The trackpad cable is quite delicate and it makes life easier to just remove it. After removing another battery I was doing the exact same thing while i waited for the new battery to arrive.

[@Lep578]

The best so far

[@sequoyah59]

Good job

[@150daysofwinter]

Thank you

[@landenlove3051]

hello! do you have a link for the battery you used? i have a 2017 macbook pro 13” that needs its battery replaced.

[@150daysofwinter]

Due to their good customer service I prefer spending a little bit more buying from ifixit.com . This is the link to the euro store. store.ifixit.fr/products/macbook-pro-13-retina-function-keys-late-2016-2017-battery?variant=31702781657139

[@damian-g4lht]

I done all that thank you, but the keypad won’t select it moves the mouse arrow but won’t select and seems very solid no flex, any ideas exact same model.

[@150daysofwinter]

Make sure the touchpad cable that goes over battery is properly connected and not damaged when it was removed. It's easy to do. Like the touchid on iphone 7s and up. the touchpad no longer moves. it registers a "click" by returning a taptic "click" making you think you pushed down.

[@joenadal3720]

I changed mind but it won’t charge, the battery icon won’t come and the laptop only comes on when it’s plug on charge 😮 please help.

[@150daysofwinter]

Make sure the battery connector is properly seated. I’ve seen times when the screw is not properly aligned and so not properly connected

[@OasisGuard]

I am trying to get information on how long the replacement battery lasts on a single charge to determine when I should replace my battery.

[@150daysofwinter]

In my experience replacement (Ifixit) lithium ion batteries last between 2-3 years

[@OasisGuard]

@@150daysofwinter I meant how many hours the new replacement battery lasts on a single charge as compared to the original apple battery when the laptop was new.

[@OasisGuard]

For example I get about 3 hours of performance out of my current battery... if I can boost that to 6 hours, I will replace the battery now. But if I am only going to get 4 hours hours out of the replacement, I will wait until the original battery has more cycles on it before I replace it. (The current capacity of the original battery is 70%)

BEWARE! When putting back the ZIF connectors you MUST NOT allow the ribbon to touch the components beneath, otherwise a reaction will occur and you will fry these pieces. Like I did. Just now 😖

[@tonimladenic]

why are you shaking so much

[@150daysofwinter]

[@Sakodubstep]

[@150daysofwinter]

If I can do it shaky you should have no problem with a steady hand

[@hatemaqil7649]
