Sudden sleep or shutdowns post iFixit battery install MBP 15" mid-2012
Hello everyone,
I recently purchased an iFixit battery to replace a not so good NuPower one.
Post install I was having issues with the battery shutting down my computer at random when running only on battery. It would be at 80%, 30% etc. It did it on both OS installs I have (partitioned disk). Never had this happen on the Nupower or original Apple battery.
iFixit sent me instructions on CoconutBattery, reset SMC, reset NVRAM, etc. They checked everything over and sent me a replacement.
Installed replacement, did the calibration, did the reset SMC, and now the laptop has begun to do so a sudden sleep or shutdown WHILE PLUGGED IN!!!
Also noticed that it seems that the laptop is getting hotter than usual at times.
I’ve attached two sets of screen shots. The first set is from a couple of days ago right after a shut down and the second set is from today right after another shut down.
Interesting about the battery being OVER 100% health and overcharged???
Thanks for any help!

Also let me know if I should just contact the iFixit support about this.
