59 Wh replacement battery for 13-inch MacBook

This 10.8 V lithium-polymer pack supplies 59 Wh through six cells and fits the A1181 chassis used across mid-2006 to mid-2009 models. It is intended for owners of those specific MacBooks who need a direct swap for an ageing original battery.

Interface and cycle limits

The battery connects through the proprietary MacBook 13 connector and is rated for up to 500 recharge cycles over its service life. Built-in circuit protection guards against overcharge, over-discharge and short-circuit conditions during normal use.

Compatibility checklist before ordering

Verify that your MacBook carries one of the listed model numbers such as A1181, MA254, MA255, MB061 or MB062 and that the original battery is also marked A1185. Machines outside the 2006 to 2009 13-inch range or with a different battery part number will not accept this pack.

Questions about this item

Which model numbers does this 59Wh 10.8V battery replace for a 13-inch MacBook?

It replaces A1185 and A1181 batteries and fits MacBook 13 models including MA254, MA255, MA472, MA561, MA566, MA700, MA701, MB061 and MB062 from mid 2006 through mid 2009.

What runtime can I expect from the 59Wh capacity once installed in a compatible MacBook 13?

The 59 watt-hour rating matches the original Apple specification, so a healthy cell pack should deliver the same typical browsing and video-playback runtime as the factory battery did when new.

Does the 10.8V 6-cell Li-polymer pack use the standard MacBook 13 connector and charging logic?

Yes, it uses the same MagSafe-compatible interface and built-in protection circuit, so the MacBook recognises it normally and charges up to the 500-cycle design life without firmware issues.
