power adapter

So having a hard time deciding which adapter to buy for my Iphone XS for fast charging, been reading about how the iPhone XS and iPhone XR will only draw a maximum of 18 watts? Any difference between the two? Charging speeds?

God damnit! Just got a new iPad, and guess what? ANOTHER ****ING TYPE OF POWER PLUG! Apple used to be so easy to follow! IM RETURNING THIS IPAD- IM FED UP WITH THIS ****! Why can't electronic manufactures get on the same page!? Ive got a drawer full of ****ing power plugs!

Hi, problem with my 2016 MacBook. Over the last few weeks it’s been intermittent whilst charging on its single usb c port. Sometimes works sometimes doesn’t. Now just doesn’t. Battery is now dead and won’t power even if plugged in. Need to access my files for work etc. Any ideas would be...

Hi there, I am currently searching a power-cable to connect a graphics-card with a 8pin power-connector to a Mac Pro. As I learned, the two mini-pcie connectors on the logic board can deliver 75w each. I read a lot of some 2x6pin to 1x8pin cables but cannot find any in German/European stores...

My late-2013 MacBook Pro that uses the 85W MagSafe 2 power adapter comes with a power adapter extension cable. However my 2017 MacBook Pro doesn't have the extension cable for 87W USB-C power adapter, just the electrical plughead. Are there any issues if I use the 85W MagSafe 2 power adapter...

Hello Community I have recently been handed a PowerBook Duo AC charger (The one with the 2 battery slots) Can I use this for anything except a PB Duo? Can I hack it in some way? Note that the power cord was NOT provided with this unit. Is this worth keeping, or better off being sent to the...

Dear forum, I know there is a USB-C adapter super thread... but my question is a bit more specific, I hope it's justified. My apologies if its not. I owned a HooToo Shuttle with HDMI, 3 USB3.0 and SD card slot and a SATECHI Aluminium Slim adapter with 2 USB3.0 and HDMI. They both have a USB-C...

Has anyone purchased an alternative charger for the 2017 MacBook Pro 13? I have the original 61W USB-C Power Adapter at work, but want to keep a "cheaper" solution at home. I see they have them for sale on Amazon, but I would prefer a first-hand testimony/review. Thanks.

So I wanted a second charge cable that was shorter than the OEM Apple one, but was also braided so that it holds up to mobile usage over time. Finding one that was safe for the MacBook was quite easy, as this model is USB-IF certified and Nathan-K approved, (and if I ever get a 15-inch MBP TB...

Hey Everyone, I have a Macbook Pro 15" Mid 2010 that will not turn on and I was hoping someone could lead me in the right direction here. The magsafe is bright green. The battery indicator lights up to 3 lights. Here's what I've tried: Disconnecting the battery, holding the power button...

Hello, i'm repairing a Powerbook G4 Aluminium (PowerBook6,1 (12")) but i have problems with the battery Apparently the battery is ok, less than 400 cycles, but sometimes the laptop suddenly shutdown because the battery dies, even though seconds before the battery is at 90%. how's that possible...

I have a MacBook Pro (15-inch, Early 2011) that recently started turning off instantly when I remove the MagSafe power cord. It otherwise works great. It is not consistent in doing this and generally turns back on afterwards. Occasionally, it doesn't turn back on and if I put the power cord back...

Hey all! I'm active duty stationed in Korea right now so hitting up an Apple Store is not possible. I bought the new MBP a few months ago and haven't had any issues. I first noticed the problem a couple hours ago but didn't really pay it any mind. I keep the laptop plugged in for the most part...

I have a new 2016 MBP and could feel a tingle from the metal frame when charging, but not when running on battery. Curious, I put a digital multimeter on the USB C cable. The shield (the metal shell on the exterior of the plug) shows 35 to 50 Volts AC to ground when the power adapter is plugged...

The "Battery is not charging" notification appeared, leaving the indication light of the charger green instead of the orange light with 80% battery capacity left. Things I've tried: - Reboot --> not a solution - Reset SMC --> not a solution - Reset PRAM --> hey! This actually helped ... for 1...

Hello, I got this USB-C hub from Amazon for my ordered MBP. I am waiting for HooToo to answer if it will be able to handle the 61W. https://amzn.com/B01K7C53K2 Perhaps somebody can give me this answer, too, or knows of any better alternative hub. Further, I wondered what power supply you can...

So is the new 87W USB-C Power Adapter just block with a plug? No USB-C cable? And obviously, no extension cable correct?

So, I'm super uncomfortable buying third party power adapters (fire hazard and such) but I don't want to spend $80 on a new charger for my $300 computer. Any ideas on a safe third party alternative - or a "known good" seller on Amazon or Ebay? Thanks!
