Just bought a new battery yesterday from "Experimac" in my neighborhood who seem to specialize in Apple products. Under my charge info it says cycle count 0, condition normal, amperage -22, charge remaining 6502 out of full charge capacity of 7000. Just bought it yesterday. I got it at 63% charge, used it for about 2 1/2 hours on battery and it slipped down to about 56%. closed the lid, left it for about 2 hours in hibernation mode, came back and it was at 7%. That doesn't seem right or is it? I've set the settings as much as I can to conserve power. If they were open today I would have taken it back but next year I will.

Especially if you are using Apple rubbish who seem to be hellbent on reducing their devices battery life if the reports are to be believed.
Ok, I got a pretty good idea about the battery now. I had a similar problem with my battery on my phone. When I went below 80% it dropped like crazy and stopped working. I got a new higher cap battery and it's more gradual in usage and held up at below 30%.
You may have a bad battery so see if it does it again. You should charge close to full capacity each time but don't over charge.
