[QUOTE="VAMountaineer, post: 1541869, member: 312336"] there was a company that made a device to prevent this failure -- - if you're using the older Magsafe... Just found it - macmagsaver.com Don't know if this is any help or not--but I thought this was brilliant when I saw it. i think this is a very common point of failure, even on the "L" shaped Magsafes as well... i've had several fail. I would very much recommend NOT wrapping your cord tightly on the charger block--that's a major cause of stress for them. As is the stress caused if you pull it loose by the wire... [/QUOTE]
