I've though more than once about just cutting the cable in half and sticking an RCA jack in the middle, and then make a 'bullet-proof-RCA-MagSafe' connector for the computer end.

For cell phones and portable music devices it is much worse, the rare earth magnets weigh less than 0.1% of the device.'Д«ack to the MagSafe, wasn't the 'fraying issue'/strain-relief-problems why they switched to the 'L shape' plug in the first place? Why did they switch back to the T-shape? As a result, the percentage is about the same as that of the poorer ore bodies (i.e., ~2%) which are mined today. One of the major problems is that although the rare earths are essential components of electronic devices, etc., they only constitute a small fraction of weight/volume of the final product (e.g., a computer). It is likely that more research on this topic will be funded by the ROW national governments. 'At the present time, there is little to no recycling of rare earth-containing products, except in Japan, but some research efforts have been started, at least in the U.S. The 14-inch MacBook Pro comes with either a 67-watt (for the M1 Pro with 8-core CPU model) or 96-watt power adapter (for the other M1 Pro or M1 Max models), while the 16-inch MacBook Pro requires you to use Apples brand new 140-watt USB-C power adapter, which happens to be the most powerful adapter that it has ever made.

Yes, I know (a little) about the 'rare earth crisis that wasn't' in 2010 (can't find the PDF now), and I found this written in 2011: ( Is it possible to recycle the chips themselves to extract the rare earth metals somehow? Or would it be worth it.

Until Apple figures out how to make one that doesn't fray. But being able to just replace the cord would be wonderful. I don't know how much of the plastic/coil metal/rare-earth-metals-from-the-transistors-ICs that Apple Recycling can get out of a 'returned' adapter brick. If nothing else, this is an enormous waste of materials.

Is this a fake AC Charger Information: Connected: Yes ID: 0x0921 Wattage (W): 60 Family: 0x0085 Serial Number: 0x0105181c Charging: No. Today I bought MF841 (2nd) along with a new one. Because it's ALWAYS the cord that frays/breaks, while the brick is (I presume) fine. The old charger is genuine when I bought a ME865 (sealed box). (like they do for the USB->Lightning/USB-C cables). I'd really like it if Apple would just sell the cords themselves, without the brick. The only reason I have a MagSafe 1 brick is because I still have a MagSafe 1 MacBook, and want to have something that can charge it. I'm assuming it's either that the pins aren't seating right, or that there's dust or something in there that's heating up somehow. Only the little adapter that has the 1->2 connection. The brick itself doesn't get hot, nor does the MagSafe 1 plug end. The new 14- and 16-inch MacBook Pros start at $1,999 and $2,499 and will be available on Tuesday (October 26), but you can preorder them now from Apple's website.Д¬lick here to read about why Apple ultimately chose to make the new MacBooks bigger and heavier.I just had this happen today - with a new MagSafe (1) power adapter (brick) too. The 14-inch MacBook Pro comes with either a 67-watt (for the M1 Pro with 8-core CPU model) or 96-watt power adapter (for the other M1 Pro or M1 Max models), while the 16-inch MacBook Pro requires you to use Apple's brand new 140-watt USB-C power adapter, which happens to be the most powerful adapter that it has ever made. The catch with these fast charging speeds over MagSafe 3 is that you have to use the USB-C power adapter (or one that's more powerful) that Apple includes in the box. It will be able to juice the new MacBook Pros from zero to 50 percent battery in just 30 minutes. Apple hasn't detailed the exact differences in charging speeds when using USB-C (Thunderbolt 4) compared to MagSafe 3 just yet, but it has said that using the MagSafe connector is faster.
