Product Description

The 60 Watt Mag Safe 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; 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.

This was the best price I found on this charger. I've had my macbook for 3 years and my first charger just broke a month ago and I have to admit I was pretty rough with it. I was hesitant in purchasing this item anywhere but from Apple themselves but so far I've been very pleased with it. Received item quickly and I've had no problems with its operation. The only issue with this item is not from the seller but from Apple. Sadly there is a flaw in these in that the wire does become disconnected over time. I do agree with previous posters though that being fairly careful with the cord and not pulling it out of the socket by the cord, etc will extend its life.

i haven't had any issues with this charger. i've had it about a month now. hopefully the cat won't chew on this one...it's the only reason i had to replace my original. the model # is different, but it doesn't seem to matter. not sure how apple does their numbering but the V, Hz and A are the same so i (hesitatingly) plugged it in...worked like a charm.

Good product, but needs extra cord. It does not come with the white extension that Apple gives away with new computers. Because I was replacing a 3 year old charger, I already had this cord. Try looking for a charger that includes this extra extension.
