Apple do offer a battery service option. None of the more recent models are officially User Servicable, but there are almost certainly DIY guides out there.
Might be worth looking at the power profile if you upgraded to Yosemite recently or just have a fiddle generally. The process monitor has an option to display power consumption by application as well.Last edited by DaveB; 17 June 2015, 10:40."Being nice costs nothing and sometimes gets you extra bacon" - Pondlife.Comment
