13-inch MacBook Pro replacement battery

This new PISKEKAT A1708 battery delivers 5100 mAh at 11.41 V for 58.19 Wh capacity. It fits 13-inch MacBook Pro models A1708 from 2016 and 2017, A2159 from 2019, and A2289 and A2338 from 2020 and 2022. A Japanese 5.0 chipset manages power distribution and cell balancing.

Upgrades worn original cells

The unit replaces factory batteries that no longer hold a useful charge or that report service warnings. Verification of the model number and EMC codes 2978, 3164, 3301, 3456, 3578 or 8162 on the bottom case confirms compatibility before installation. It is not suited for 15-inch or 16-inch MacBook Pro models, nor for MacBook Air variants.

58.19 Wh capacity for daily workloads

The 5100 mAh pack supports typical office, browsing and media tasks through a full working day on a single charge. Heavy sustained loads such as video rendering or virtual machines will deplete the reserve faster. Built-in circuit protection guards against overcharge, over-discharge and short-circuit conditions.
