I'm leaving London on Friday and my MacBook charger has just kicked the bucket. I would go on eBay but I don't have much time so wondering if anybody had a 65w or 85w magsafe/maglite charger for the late 2009 onward MacBook pro

Thanks!!

you need an 85W if you dont want to wait 15 mins while you trickle charge from a 65W in the event of no battery btw.

Fuuu-
What's a trickle charge? Anyhow I've been using an 85w

I can see what's happened as well. I got one of those 3rd party ones off eBay and one of the little gold contacts on the charger has completely sunken in and they all need to touching for it to work

(disclaimer: obv I'm mega poor atm or else I wouldve just gone to the mac store)

Formatting Help

Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.

Tips:

Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----

To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word

To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word

Embed images by entering:

That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.

* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks

1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot

For syntax highlighting, surround the code block with three backticks:

Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.
