[QUOTE="dbm, post: 1668394, member: 184286"] Hi, Today I was playing Pillars of Eternity (great game) for the first time on my MBP, with the charger attached as I tend to do if playing games. Initially it seemed fine, but then after a few hours I got a low battery warning message. A brief investigation showed no LED activity on my MagSafe 2 charger, and battery down to 9%. I tried a different wall socket, and tried the extended plug fitting rather than the short one I normally use. No difference. After a bit of searching it tried [url=https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201295]resetting the SMC[/url] and [url=https://support.apple.com/kb/PH18761?locale=en_US]resenting PRAM[/url]. Still no effect. Any other suggestions before I go buy another MagSafe 2? Unfortunately I don't have a second one or know anyone with one. Mac specs to the left, running the latest Yosemite release.
