takeawaydave Posted September 16, 2019 Share Posted September 16, 2019 I am running the latest Clover_v2.5k_r5070 with latest VirtualSMC 1.07 and SMCBatteryManager.kext 1.0 and seeing the Battery Warning "Condition: Replace Soon" Under SystemInformation I can see the cycle count as: Health Information: Cycle Count: 256 Condition: Replace Soon I am not sure whether passing 250 cycles started the warning message however the BIOS shows the Battery as Healthy. Do I just have to live with this warning or is there a misconfiguration or tweak I can implement to get this to align to the BIOS status ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Allan Posted September 16, 2019 Share Posted September 16, 2019 Some infos about battery you sholdn't take it so serious, as the macOS it's not designed to a PC/Notebook... But for me I've solved that by doing calibrating my battery, that's because even on Windows showed me some warning messages about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

File here https://sourceforge.net/projects/hwsensors3.hwsensors.p/files/ @Slice - This also solves the problem I was having - Thanks! Less details are shown however I would like to investigate the wider set of HWMonitor tools which might be helpful.

kiemtienspeed Posted September 19, 2019 Share Posted September 19, 2019 You should completely discharge the battery then ms fully charge the battery again (do not turn on the computer) is an error that will be fixed. However, you should also check your computer battery sooner because this is just a temporary fix Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
