Apple MagSafe 60W Power Adapter for MacBook MA538LL/B

Quantity:
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.

Nifty Adaptor2008-11-25
My adaptor actually came with the purchase of my MacBook so I didn't have to buy this separately. Maybe that's why I like my adaptor so much more than most of the other reviewers. Mine doesn't turn hot or hasn't melted (yet?)!

It can be inserted into the MacBook either way - meaning it's never upside down. There is a magnetic pull to it so it easily inserts. The light is "red" while it's powering up your MacBook and turns green once it's done.

It also comes with this nifty hook thing where you can wrap the cord around it (similar to a vacuum cleaner how you wind up your power cord around the two hooks). So far I'm very pleased with it!
Perhaps the least reliable device ever produced by Apple2008-11-19
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.
Good adapter for a good price2008-10-07
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!
Fallas en el diseño2008-10-06
Este es el tercer cargador que compro debido a que los 2 anteriores se dañaron sin razon aparente.....el primero pense que habia sido mi hijo el que lo daño metiendoselo en la boca, pero el 2do se daño 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 rediseñar 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
Very Satisfied User, 2+ Years2008-10-02
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).

Digital camera batteries
Batteries are vital for all photography and makiing sure that you have a spare set is essential if you intend to take alot of pictures. Print digital also recommend that when deciding upon a digital camera keep in mind what sort of batteries it takes. Does it take rechargeable batteries, are the batteries built and do you have to plug it into the mains, or does the camera only take standard batteries, if so then it can become exspensive if you are a keen photographer and use the camera alot. There are three types of rechargeable batteries: NiCD, NiMH and Lithium-Ion. Nickel Metal Hydride are the most popular rechargeable batteries at present. They hold more charge than their counter parts NiCD and don't suffer from memory effect. The one small down fall of these batteries is that they will loose a small amount of charge even if they are not being used, so be sure to check the batteries before using them. When you purchase a new digital camera make sure to ask what type of battery ...
