Apple 85W MagSafe 1 Power Adapter * Compatibility: Designed for 15-inch and 17-inch MacBook Pro models made between 2006 and early/mid-20

Apple 85W MagSafe 1 Power Adapter * Compatibility: Designed for 15-inch and 17-inch MacBook Pro models made between 2006 and early/mid-2012 (before the Retina display models with the thinner MagSafe 2 connector). * Note: The 85W adapter is also compatible with 13-inch MacBook and MacBook Pro models, which originally came with a 60W adapter. * Connector Type: This is a MagSafe 1 connector. Depending on the exact year of your MacBook Pro (2008–2012 non-Retina models), it may have come with either the: * "T" style connector (older, square end) * "L" style connector (newer, right-angle end) * Both are MagSafe 1 and are generally interchangeable for charging, though the "T" style may fit better in some tight spaces. Apple often sells the "L" style (part number MC556LL/B) as the current replacement. * Availability (Brand New/Genuine): While Apple still sells an 85W MagSafe Power Adapter (often for around $79), it is becoming less common to find a brand-new, sealed MagSafe 1 adapter directly from major retailers. Many "new" listings for this older model (A1343, A1222, etc.) come from third-party sellers, are certified refurbished/open box, or are non-Apple/third-party versions. * Where to Look: * Apple Store/Authorized Resellers: Check their official websites or contact them. They still list the 85W MagSafe Power Adapter (MC556LL/B), which is the correct wattage and MagSafe 1 connector. * Certified Resellers (e.g., OWC/MacSales, Micro Center): These stores often stock genuine or high-quality, warrantied compatible/refurbished power adapters for older Mac models. * Online Marketplaces (e.g., eBay, Walmart): You can find new, used, genuine, and third-party options here, but buyer caution is strongly advised to ensure you are getting a reliable, safe charger, as third-party quality can vary significantly. ⚠️ Important Considerations The most crucial factor when buying a charger for older MacBooks is ensuring it is a genuine Apple or a high-quality, certified third-party replacement. Poor-quality, counterfeit chargers can pose safety risks (overheating, fire) and damage your MacBook's power management hardware. MagSafe 1 vs. MagSafe 2 Be extremely careful not to confuse the MagSafe 1 (T-tip or L-tip, used on your 2008-2012 non-Retina model) with the MagSafe 2 (thin, wide connector used on 2012–2015 Retina MacBook Pros). They are not compatible without an adapter. Your model uses MagSafe 1.
