Has your trusty MacBook charger seen better days? Is it holding on by three rounds of electrical tape and a dream? Chances are, it’s time to replace your charging cable with a new, more efficient, less dangerous option. You can find top-of-the-line braided charging cables from LOGiiX, which will sustain the life of your laptop battery without creating a fire hazard.
Here are four key signs that it’s time to say goodbye to your old MacBook charger and why our cables from LOGiiX are the right choice for both function and style!
Can’t Hold a Charge
Your charger has one job, and it’s not doing it very well. If you plug your laptop in and the lightning symbol over the Battery Icon doesn’t show up, this is a key indicator that your charging cable is no longer working. Rather than fuss with it, order a new cable and enjoy a full charge once again!
Your Laptop Dies When It’s “Charging”
Your MacBook might show that it is charging, but does it die when it's plugged in? This is usually caused by frayed or loose wires, which can prevent the charger from drawing enough power to your laptop battery.
The Cable Is Frayed
If you have any exposed wires, cracks, or breaks along the seam, the integrity of your cable and adapter is likely weak. Not only is this annoying, but it’s also a fire hazard. Your best bet is to unplug your laptop, throw out the charger, and get a new one.
Overheating
Have you almost burnt yourself trying to unplug your laptop charger? If your charger and port are overheating, this is a big indicator that they’re malfunctioning. An overheated charger can damage your laptop, reduce its lifespan, and ruin the battery and other internal components.
Why You Should Replace Failing Charging Cables
If your MacBook charging cable shows any or all of the above signs, it’s time to get a new one! It’s a good idea to replace your cable once it starts malfunctioning rather than trying to keep using it.
As your cable continues to degrade, it can cause issues with your laptop and your home’s power outlets, causing short circuits, circuit breaker trips, and electrical shocks. You may even run the risk of starting a fire if your charger overheats and explodes.
