The MacBook Pro 15-inch A1707 (Late 2016-2017) replacement battery is a high-quality 76.0 Wh aftermarket cell engineered to restore your MacBook to original-spec runtime. In particular, capacity, voltage, watt-hours, and physical dimensions all match Apple’s reference design, so the battery drops into the existing chassis with no shimming and no fit issues. In addition, NZ stock, the included screwdriver and adhesive kit, and a 6-month warranty round out the package.
Specifically, this MacBook battery brings three advantages that matter for a trade-grade laptop repair: an original-spec cell, zero-cycle factory-fresh chemistry, and full NZ logistics with same-day dispatch from local stock. Importantly, the cell ships zero-cycle, which means it has not been charged or discharged before reaching you. As a result, you get the full design lifespan from day one.
| What you get | How it benefits you |
|---|---|
| Original-spec 76.0 Wh capacity | In particular, all-day runtime that tracks the factory cell. Furthermore, there is no drop-off in standby time. |
| Adhesive and screwdrivers included | Specifically, the pack ships with battery adhesive strips and the Pentalobe P5 plus Torx tools required to open the MacBook bottom case and seat the new cell. As a result, technicians have everything required for the install in one part. |
| Zero-cycle, factory-fresh cell | Indeed, you get the full design lifespan from first charge. Moreover, there is no prior wear and no shelf degradation beyond standard storage. |
| Regional and EMC variants | In particular, the MacBook Pro 15-inch A1707 EMC variants all share the same cell. Therefore, one part covers all variants. |
| Supplier part number A1820 | Specifically, this matches the OEM-equivalent part identifier. As a result, trade technicians can confirm fit before ordering. |
| NZ stock, dispatch | Generally, weekday orders ship the same day. In addition, tracked overnight delivery is available nationwide. |
| 6-month manufacturing-defect warranty | Importantly, this is local NZ-backed warranty cover. Furthermore, it is handled directly by GA Tech NZ. |
First, this MacBook A1820 replacement battery fits MacBook Pro 15-inch Touch Bar A1707 (Late 2016, Mid 2017). The specific Apple model identifiers and EMC numbers covered are: A1707 (Touch Bar, Late 2016 EMC 3072, Mid 2017 EMC 3162). Apple uses the supplier part number A1820 for the variants and EMC revisions of this MacBook.
For context, the A1820 cell rates at 76.0 Wh, 6667 mAh, 11.4 V nominal, and 12.95 V charging cutoff, matching the original Apple cell specification. As a result, this replacement battery restores native-feeling runtime after installation. In practice, customers commonly report that a tired MacBook jumps from a few hours of mixed-use battery life back to a full working day on a single charge after the swap.
In particular, this battery suits three groups of buyers. First, MacBook owners whose original cell has degraded below acceptable runtime and who want to keep using the device. Second, NZ repair shops and trade technicians who need a reliable, local-stocked MacBook battery for fast paid repair work. Third, experienced DIY repairers who already own the precision tools for MacBook disassembly. However, for first-time DIY repairers, GA Tech NZ strongly recommends professional fitting through the in-house repair service because MacBook cell removal requires careful isopropyl alcohol application and a damaged lithium cell is a fire risk.
Typically, a new Li-ion polymer cell retains 80 percent of its design capacity through roughly 1000 full charge cycles for a MacBook-class battery, which works out to three to five years of normal daily use. After that, capacity will begin to taper, and the next replacement window opens. Meanwhile, GA Tech NZ’s 6-month warranty covers manufacturing defects in the first 6 months from delivery, and the cell itself is built to deliver the full Li-ion design lifespan when charged within Apple’s voltage range.
Since 2017, GA Tech NZ has supplied spare parts and repair services across New Zealand. Because GA Tech NZ holds the MacBook Pro 15-inch A1707 (Late 2016-2017) battery in local stock, weekday orders are dispatched the same day with tracked overnight courier delivery nationwide. Most orders land the next business day. In addition, buyers who want a fitted result can book in-house MacBook battery replacement. Meanwhile, for complementary parts and tools, browse the MacBook parts and repair tools categories.

Specifically, this MacBook A1820 replacement battery fits the following MacBook variants and their EMC revisions.
Before ordering, to confirm your MacBook model number, click the Apple menu > About This Mac. The A-XXXX identifier in the More Info / System Report view should match one of those listed above.
The MacBook battery sits beneath the bottom case, bonded to the chassis with strong cell adhesive, and connected via a flex cable to the logic board. Generally, a trained technician completes the full swap in 60 to 120 minutes including bottom case removal, cell adhesive softening, and reseal. For buyers unfamiliar with MacBook disassembly, GA Tech NZ strongly recommends in-house MacBook battery replacement.
First, the supplier holds standard CE Declaration of Conformity (EU Council EMC Directive 2014/30/EU) and FCC Supplier’s Declaration of Conformity (FCC Part 15 Subpart B / ANSI C63.4:2014) for this battery line. In addition, the supplier holds standard lithium-battery transport and safety documentation, including UN38.3 test reports, MSDS, 1.2M drop test, and air transport identification under CNAS-accredited testing. As a result, the battery line ships with the compliance paperwork required for safe NZ courier transit.
Specifically, the MacBook A1820 replacement battery is rated at 76.0 Wh, 6667 mAh, 11.4 V nominal, and 12.95 V charging cutoff. As a result, these numbers match the original Apple cell specification, which is why runtime after installation tracks the factory experience closely.
Yes, indeed. Because the cell is zero-cycle and built to Apple’s original capacity specification, a tired MacBook typically returns to a full working day of mixed use after the swap. However, real-world runtime depends on screen brightness, WiFi signal strength, and CPU/GPU workload from background apps.
Generally, a new Li-ion polymer MacBook-class cell retains 80 percent of its design capacity through approximately 1000 full charge cycles. With normal daily use, that works out to roughly three to five years before the next noticeable degradation. Meanwhile, GA Tech NZ’s 6-month warranty covers any manufacturing defects in the first 6 months from delivery.
Specifically, this pack fits MacBook Pro 15-inch Touch Bar A1707 (Late 2016, Mid 2017). The full Apple A-number and EMC list is: A1707 (Touch Bar, Late 2016 EMC 3072, Mid 2017 EMC 3162). Therefore, confirm your model number in About This Mac before ordering.
No. The A1398 (2013-2015) uses A1494 or A1618 and the A1990 (2018-2019) uses A1953. The A1820 fits the A1707 Touch Bar (Late 2016, Mid 2017) only.
Yes. The pack includes the battery adhesive strips needed to bond the new cells to the chassis, plus the Pentalobe P5 screwdriver for the bottom case and the Torx driver for the internal screws. Therefore, technicians have everything needed to open the MacBook, remove the old cell, and seat the new battery in one purchase.
Yes, indeed. In fact, GA Tech NZ offers in-house MacBook battery replacement. Generally, the full job takes 60 to 120 minutes in the workshop and includes a final test before handover. In addition, MacBook battery repair is more delicate than phone work because the cells are bonded with strong adhesive that requires isopropyl alcohol softening, so professional fitting significantly reduces the risk of cell puncture or chassis damage.
Generally, weekday orders placed before the dispatch cutoff are sent the same day with tracked overnight courier delivery nationwide. Urban delivery usually arrives the next business day, rural deliveries may take two business days or more.
First, GA Tech NZ provides a 6-month warranty against manufacturing defects on this MacBook Pro 15-inch A1707 (Late 2016-2017) replacement battery. However, the warranty does not cover physical damage, installation errors, or water damage. In addition, GA Tech NZ accepts change-of-mind returns on unopened parts in new unused condition within 7 days of receipt under the GA Tech NZ terms and conditions.
