Hello,
I own a 13" Macbook Pro (Early 2015) with a Power Adapter Extension Cable. I have just purchased the 14" Macbook Pro (2021) and I am wondering if I will be able to use the Power Adapter from my old Macbook Pro instead of purchasing a new one? Are they compatible?

Yes the extension cable itself is universal—replacing the duckhead.
The 1.8-meter Power Adapter Extension Cable is an AC extension lead that provides extra length for your Apple power adapter. Use it with MagSafe and MagSafe 2 power adapters, 10W and 12W USB-A power adapters and 29W, 30W, 61W, 67W, 87W, 96W, and 140W USB-C power adapters.

Thank you ! So the extension is compatible with MagSafe 3 even though it doesn't say it?
Yes— I do not know how else to say it.
It does say as posted above directly from the HT linked above in so many words— the 140W USB-C is the magsafe 3. This is not the end you are asking about. The extension cord is power to the brick—this is the Universal part
The magsafe 3 is power from the brick to the computer.

NO, and No.
the amount of power required to run for the new computer is higher, AND
the MagSafe-3 is a different connector that previous MagSafe and MagSafe-2.
The US$19 accessory AC extension cord will fit both old and new power adapters.

Sorry my question was misleading. I meant to only talk about the extension. The extension fits both old and new, so it shoudl be compatible?
