Apple 45W MagSafe Power Adapter for MacBook Air
-
Overview
The 45-Watt MagSafe Power Adapter for MacBook Air 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.
Redesigned specifically for MacBook Air, the adapter is the perfect traveling companion. It 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.
Compatible only with MacBook Air with MagSafe Power Port.

Best Answer:
I would buy a surge protector for your Macbook Pro. I believe most people who run into problems wit I would buy a surge protector for your Macbook Pro. I believe most people who run into problems with the charger is due to no surge protection. The macbook is very intricate device and the charger that comes with it doesn't have surge protection. A computer will last longer if plugged into a surge protector.
