The only explanation I can think of is that during the last year (during the lockdown) I've seldom discharged more than 10-20% of the battery in each use.

I installed CoconutBattery, and noticed that it said that its current full capacity is only 4600 mAh, while its original design capacity was 7150 mAh. After that, one day the computer shut down when it still had a 49% charge, and then I started noticing that the battery discharged itself much faster than before. but a few days ago, after only 200 battery cycles, I suddenly noticed a "Repair battery" warning in the status bar. 2019) I bought a second hand Macbook Air (early 2015 model), with a new battery. ![]()
