Product Description
The 60 Watt MagSafe Power Adapter features a magnetic DC connector that ensures your power cable will disconnect if it experiences undue strain and helps prevent fraying or weakening of the cables over time. In addition, the magnetic DC helps guide the plug into the system for a quick and secure connection.When the connection is secure, an LED located at the head of the DC connector will light; an amber light lets you know that your portable is charging, while a green light tells you that you have a full charge. An AC cord is provided with the adapter for maximum cord length, while the AC wall adapter (also provided) gives users an even easier and more compact way to travel.Designed to be the perfect traveling companion, the adapter has a clever design, which allows the DC cable to be wound neatly around itself for easy cable storage.This power adapter recharges the lithium polymer battery while the system is off, on, or in sleep mode. It also powers the system if you choose to operate without a battery.

1 out of 5 stars Perhaps the least reliable device ever produced by Apple   November 19, 2008
Apple has a reputation for making hardware that works reliably for a long time. This adaptor is an exception. If you have a Mac Book, you might want to pick up a spare adaptor. My first one quit working 5 days after the warranty expired. The replacement for it lasted less than a week. My third one (purchased through Amazon) is working but it is only day 3. Despite some reviews here to the contrary, the device sold here by Amazon is the genuine Apple product.

This device is either very poorly designed or uses inferior electrical components. It is a huge disservice to Apple's reputation to distribute computers with a power adapter this unreliable. They should be recalled and replaced with a reliable substitute free of charge. With no moving parts to speak of, there is little wear and tear. Thus, the components must be pretty poor.



4 out of 5 stars Good adapter for a good price   October 7, 2008
If your Apple MacBook adapter is broken, this is a good choice. The price (including shipping) was lower than a new adapter in my nearest Apple Store, and the standard non-expedited delivery was fast: less than 10 days, and I live in Europe ;) Thanks!


3 out of 5 stars Fallas en el diseno   October 6, 2008
Este es el tercer cargador que compro debido a que los 2 anteriores se danaron sin razon aparente.....el primero pense que habia sido mi hijo el que lo dano metiendoselo en la boca, pero el 2do se dano sin que mi hijo tuviera acceso a el......la parte magnetica funciona a la maravilla, pero los conectores del cable, al parecer se pegan y no hacen buen contacto en la computadora, entonces o no carga la bateria de la laptop, o la laptop no reconoce la corriente externa, asi que Apple deberia redisenar este cable para que los puntos de conexion del cable no se peguen y asi no exista mas fallas......pienso ademas que deberia ser un accesorio mas barato, debido a las interminables fallas y quejas que recibe este producto tanto en esta pagina como en la de Apple...irremediablemente es el unico conector que le sirve a las Apples, asi que no queda otra de seguir comprandolo........es recomendable evitar que el conector entre en contacto con la humedad


4 out of 5 stars Very Satisfied User, 2+ Years   October 2, 2008
Just to counter some of the negative press on this thing: I have two of these and have had no problems with either one. No overheating, breaking, etc. One of them travels and I'm constantly winding up the cord, folding it up, packing, unpacking, and otherwise handling the adapter ungently. Never had any trouble with it. Am thinking about getting another one (to leave at work).

It's not really the one from Apple. No apple logo on it. But it works just as well! A little weird that after you unplug it from the laptop it sometimes still glows green/orange. But nothing wrong with it really. I recommend this b/c it's much cheaper than the Apple store replacement one. These chargers burn every year or so. So better to get this cheaper replacement version
