Not quite an exact replica as my... OEM Cable but it was a quick job to remember be the original & replace with this one. It's been 1+ month & everything works as it should. At the price, this is a perfect solution to fix my broken charger cable; excellent value product.

This cable works fine with my mid 2013 ...Macbook Air. I soldered it to the circuit board in the charger as my old cable was frayed at both ends. The cable itself is flexible and looks much like the old one, it sticks well in the maglock and fit the charger perfectly. Time will tell what the quality is like. My only remark is that the little windows for the LED:s in the connector are not covered like on the original cable. In this substitute cable they're tiny holes open into the circuit board in the connector. This may make it more sensitive to intrusion from spilled fluids and the like... You can probably put in a bit of transparent glue to cover this hole up.

This product is a god send. Very high end mate...rials, the light indicator, the cable coating etc. But most of all it saves you from giving Apple another $100 for a new charger, when the electronics are still fine. A despicable tactic by them btw, creating this obvious Achilles heel. I have had many of these chargers fray their cables like no other supposedly high end item. Check Youtube for videos on how to install. My advice is to skip the whole soldering to the board (requires extra dismantling) and just splice the cables together. There's enough room to to this, and it makes the job far easier. Simply use shrink sleeves around the cables. Your charger will look like new again.

If the cable breaks on a M...ac MagSafe power supply, Apple recommend throwing the power supply away and buying a new one. This is sensible, because Apple know the quality of their products. It's also expensive, and the old one is perfectly functional - it just needs a new cable. To fix the power supply involves breaking open the power supply case, safely doing soldering on the internal cables, then fixing the case (e.g. with superglue). There are instructional videos online. If you don't know what you are doing, or you aren't comfortable tinkering with power electronics, you probably want to avoid this one, and buy a new power supply from Apple instead.

My macbook would not charge...I thought there was something serious...ly wrong. I tried my daughters charger and hers worked...but it was not something we could share. I saw this and bought it.Now I have the power. I could have bought a generic charger, but sometimes they do not work. I opted for this and I have no regrets. It does the job...and there are no downsides to having a working, ready to go Macbook.
