can the MBP's magsafe cable be plugged into other power adapters?
Hi all! Dumb question maybe.
On the old apple power bricks, the MagSafe cable was hard fixed onto the brick. But now they are usb-c on one side (to be plugged into power adapter) and the new MagSafe 3 on the other side.
So.. I could plug the usb-c end into any other power brick? say an Anker or Ugreen one?
Someone told me I should absolutely not do this.
But.. then why is the cable made this way? And the MBP can charge via usb-c port now also so.. this would just be freeing one of those ports by using MagSafe. Surely if it's at least a 60w brick it'll work? My MBP came with a 96w one so I guess anything less would charge kind of slow, but would it cause harm?
thanks!
