Nice way to stick it to the fruit company
My M1 2020 MacBook is at the age where it still works just fine, but I'm getting the "service recommended" nag message in my Control Panel because the battery is under 80% of its original capacity. And of course, Apple was the one who led the way for laptops to have non-replaceable batteries.Rather than take my pilgrimage to the Apple Store to pay my annual tribute to the "Geniuses" whose primary job seems to be to wear turtlenecks and look cool, I decided to channel myself from 20 years ago, back when everyone know how to take apart and put together a PC.The last time I tried this I had to search everywhere for the correct Torx screwdriver, which Apple seems to deliberately change to dissuade people from fixing their computers themselves. I love how this company gives you everything you need for this specific model, including the exact two kinds of screwdrivers you need and tools and accessories to do it right.Note that this repair is not for the faint-hearted—another booby trap that Apple puts in your way is that it cements the battery to the case, almost daring you to remove it (which can be hazardous given that it's li-ion). This is where I'd suggest you watch a lot of YouTube videos to look at different techniques of how people do it. I found the plastic card and scraper provided good for the task (you definitely don't want to be poking around the battery with metal), but different people will have differing levels of difficulty with this step. They do provide their own instructions which are good as reference, but it's good to see and hear actual people doing it if you've never done it before.Once the old battery is out, it's literally a snap to install the new one. That said, this isn't a Duplo kit, so you'll need to be very, very careful the whole way not to accidentally snap a fragile wire or misalign a fragile connector. That said, it's not as difficult as it may seem to newbies.I don't even bother to re-cement the battery in its place—putting the back cover on will do just fine. But I like that they include all the materials you need to complete a repair that's near or better than the quality an Apple subcontractor would do (who likely use the same parts and maybe even the same battery).If you have any kind of DIY instinct, this is a way to save a ton of money and do your part to stop Apple's extortion rates.

Works perfectly and great instructions!
I got this for my A2338 Macbook pro 13" laptop as the battery required service and would not maintain a charge and this battery has been working perfectly!For starters, I was intimidated by the installation as there are quite a few more steps involved here than changing a regular laptop battery but fortunately SeaPlant includes great instructions, tools, and on the product page they even have an instructional video that walks you right along the process!This battery has been doing a great job for me so far and I will likely update this review in months to come to comment on how the battery life is holding up!
