[QUOTE="greviv, post: 1535074, member: 254288"] [b]Overheating wires to charger[/b] Thank you all for your posts. I have just had to order my third charger due to various problems with the wires overheating and breaking. Got up this morinng to find the wire to the white box charger had just stapped in half, Looked as though it overheated, The original and the other two I purchased over heated at the end of the wires to the magntic connector. I find the charger gets very hot also so try to place in a position for air to circulate.Thanks for the tip about checking for debris in the magntic head. love my Mac book pro but the charher is "not fit for pupose" The first one was replaced whilst under warranty. The one I bought last year in June cost me £65 as did the one I ordered today. Not only will i be without my charger for five days until the new one arrives but within the last sixteen months have had to pay out £130 for the inconvience. Mac should have recalled these chargers it is disgraceful that they are not doing so. [/QUOTE]
