Hello I have a MacBook Air 2013 11' which I've brought a few months ago. 2013 MBAs are known to have long battery life, just like mine, around 7-9 hours of usage.
Lately my MacBook battery life really took a change, at fully charged once I started using just surfing web, it shows 3hours+ usage remaining. I have turned off every single thing which could be draining the battery and even dim the brightness. This morning I just checked, not opening any applications and at 92% shows 3 hour 30 minutes remaining battery life only.
Do you think there's something wrong with it and I should bring it to the service centre or something and get it checked?
Thanks guys!

Are you running Flash? (Youtube, Neopet's Flash Games etc)
Disable it.
