That’s what I call a smart charger. It’s from the new MacBook Pro.
Variable outputs: 20.3v; 9v or 5.2v.
@variablepulserate Yes, because it uses a 12-pin/16-pin PCI Express connection.
@variablepulserate The SSD comes out with one screw, trouble is reusing it: compatible USB enclosures start at $140.
If ever I have to fry food, I use ghee as the medium. It’s been a bit hard to find locally until recently. Seems like every little satellite shopping centre in every new suburban development gets an Indian/Sri Lankan grocery. My needs are now met in a local shop rather than having to travel west or southwest for 25 minutes.
@jws No. Standard Lightning cable with a USB-C to USB-A adaptor. I'm expecting delivery of a 7-port Thunderbolt 3 hub in a week or so. That way I can keep using the older peripherals without a mass of dongles.
Apple offers a new 13-in MB Pro without Touch Bar and it's equipped with the Kaby Lake (15 Watt) processors, the Touch Bar models have bigger, faster & more power-hungry Kaby Lake gear.
While Apple offers a Touch Bar-free 15-in MB Pro, what they don't tell you is that it's the 2015 model, retained as an entry-level device.
That said, it's a 2.2 GHz quad-core i7 and is still a far better performer than ANY 13-in MB Pro, even the 3.5 GHz dual-core 3.5 GHz i7.
I've just ordered a magnetic breakaway adaptor for the USB-C charging cable on the MacBook Pro. It sits on the end of the existing cable & leaves a section a few millimetres long protruding from the Thunderbolt port when sufficient force is applied.
MagSafe 3?
There's folks out there who just plain hate the super-short key travel on the new Macbook Pro range, I'm definitely not one of them, I love it.
