Great Idea, Love the Magsafe.,

This review is from: Apple 85W Magsafe Portable Power Adapter (for MacBook Pro) MA938LL/A (Retail Packaging) (Personal Computers)
I bought this to replace the original 85W which came with my macbook pro.
This new one has a better rubber extension on the magsafe so it won't fall apart as easily like the first one did. The size of the "brick" has been reduced, it's no longer a rectangle, it's now a square. -About an inch shorter then the old one, although still suppling 85watts. If you have a non pro macbook, get this rather then the 65w(same price). this will work with all the macbooks, macbook air, macbook pro. so it's more universal if you plan on upgrading laptops.

Non-apple product,
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Apple 85W Magsafe Portable Power Adapter (for MacBook Pro) MA938LL/A (Retail Packaging) (Personal Computers)
Only after receiving this product did I realize it was not a trueApple product. The picture on the item shows an adaptor with an apple logo - this is misleading at best. Also, after powering my macbook with this adaptor I started to notice static coming from my speakers or headphones. I thought the output jack on the macbook had gone bad but while listening I unplugged the magsafe cord from the computer and the static stopped. This tells me this adaptor comes no where near the quality of a real apple adaptor, nor is it reflected in the price.
I'm in contact with the vender now to see if they are willing to refund this item.

Use Caution- Fire Hazzard,
This review is from: Apple 85W Magsafe Portable Power Adapter (for MacBook Pro) MA938LL/A (Retail Packaging) (Personal Computers)
Just do a google and you'll see the life of this adapter is about a year. Way too many incidents out there. My first adapter lasted exactly one year. One day I was charging my macbook and I started to smell wires burning. It turned out to be the wire from this adapter, specifically where it attaches to the macbook. The key is not to put *any* stress on the wire at all by letting it bend. Apparently the plastic wire is so cheaply made that it will wear out and expose the inner wires to each other. Luckily my macbook was not damaged, and I was there to unplug the adapter when it started to smolder. While I love the smart magnetic design, it's made quite shoddy. Of course the price is very high also at $79!?! Ridiculous for plastic and cheap wiring! When I went to the Apple store to replace my adapter, there was a 3 week wait as well! I was lucky to find one on eb*y for just under $36.
My best advice is not to put any tension on this wire because it obviously can't handle it, and I'd avoid leaving it charging alone simply because I don't trust it and I've googled quite a few horror stories. Check out the apple store and you'll see all the reviews about sparks, smoke, melting , and fire. Currently, I'm on my 3rd adapter in 3 years. The current version I bought on ebay and it's re-enforced at the weak spot I mentioned. This version seems to be the best. Check out the photo I posted, and you'll notice that the end that connects to the macbook pro is different, with a bigger plastic shell. While this newer version is square and more compact, photos indicate that it's still got the same old weak end.
