How do I kill my battery fast?
Is it possible to kill this battery in less than 2 weeks? It looks like it is on its last legs. And I need a new keyboard. Some paint is already worn off on the S key. There is a month and a half left on my Applecare, but I'm leaving the country in a couple weeks. If I can kill the battery without voiding the warranty before then, I can get a new topcase for free. Please help!

Interesting, Dan. Looks like I missed the boat on that one. Well, it seems I posted my question too soon, without checking my Applecare terms and conditions carefully. It seems that the 80% rule only applies to Macbooks (just got off the phone with a service rep) purchased after August 27, 2015. So the rules before that were less generous. So if I kill my battery, I'm going to be stuck paying $199, which actually isn't too bad considering I should(?) get a new keyboard with it. So I'll just wait until the battery (or keyboard) dies a natural death.

But I'm still curious about how to properly kill a battery in less than 3 years....... in preparation for next time.

Can't, other than use.
