MacBook AC Adapter attachment breaks

Written on July 3, 2006 – 12:47 pm | by iSwitch |

As many Apple notebook owners will know and appreciate, the AC adapter ships with two attachments, a long cable and a small clip-on plug:

Long Cord Clip on Plug

I personally use the cord at home and the small clip-on plug, which is less bulky when I’m out. I actually find this very convenient as I can just leave the long cord plugged into the wall socket at home and just detatch the adaptor from it and clip the small plug on when I need to bring my notebook out.

However, when detatching the clip-on plug today, it simply came apart, exposing the wires.


Broken Attachment

The adapter still works, so I guess it’s not as bad as those who’ve had their magsafe connector burn.

I called up the Apple Store this morning and they suggested I bring it in so they can have a look. I hope they simply replace the AC Adaptor or order a new clip-on plug for it.
