Flawed battery starts malfunctioning after a while

Unfortunately you get what you pay for -- I installed this battery and all was fine at first (although I was surprised the new battery did not really affect the time the charge would last from the factory installed one). But after a couple of months, I started having problems where the computer would randomly shut off for no reason, even though by its own internal meter the battery had plenty of life (I went through calibrating the battery twice, just in case that was the issue). These issues have gotten more and more frequent. I never had this problem prior to installing this battery so I can only conclude this is the problem -- and it conveniently arose after the return by date.

Pros

Batteries

Cons

Limited compatibility with only 13" Retina Models from late 2013 to early 2015, making it unusable for newer models

Had never even thought about attempting to replace the battery on my macbook pro, especially when they tell you at Apple that the battery is built in and the whole bottom part of laptop is replaced when changing the battery.Very impressed with this kit that arrived. Great packaging and all tools included.Watched a step by step video online and voila!Floss or fishing line works great removing old battery glue.
