(2015)<p>It'd be interesting to see how the modern charges fare and a comparison to something like an Anker Nano II instead of just cheap ones which turn out to have cheaper out as expected.<p>In regards to the cable I'm so glad the MagSafe 3 cable is braided instead of whatever fraying and/or discoloring plastic they normally go for. Not as glad about said cable being $49 but on the flip side it's also completely optional as it supports USB C charging and the charger it ships with is USB C ended as well.
I remember back in college (2010s) part of what made Macbooks so cool were their small chargers and magsafe connector. I had no clue that inside was an engineering marvel itself.<p>As usual there's a jab at the end about Apple's pricing model but other than that I really appreciated how in-depth and understandable the article was. Especially as a laymen to electrical engineering.
Mehdi’s video is probably the most cited explanation for full bridge rectifiers. Classic. <a href="https://youtu.be/sI5Ftm1-jik" rel="nofollow">https://youtu.be/sI5Ftm1-jik</a>
