I can't stop raving about this $16 magnetic gadget - here's why it's so useful
"Although simple and straightforward, it has protected my USB-C ports from damage numerous times and prevented laptops from being pulled to the floor by people (usually me) tripping over the charging cable. Also: We found the 100+ best Black Friday deals live now up to 75% off from Amazon, Walmart, Target & more It's a magnetic breakaway USB-C connector similar to Apple's MagSafe connector, compatible with all your devices,"
"Just a note on the different versions of this product: I've tested both the 140W and 240W versions of this connector, and both reacted identically in the thermal and resistance tests. This makes sense, as these are just pass-through connectors, with the only active element being the LED light, which leads me to conclude that the 140W versions simply have"
A magnetic breakaway USB-C connector provides a protective two-part connection for devices, with a plug that stays in the device and a cable-end piece that attaches magnetically. Super-strong neodymium magnets hold the two parts together until a pull separates them, preventing ports from damage and laptops from being yanked to the floor. The connector carries all 24 USB-C pins so charging and data transfer speeds remain uncompromised. Both 140W and 240W versions behaved identically in thermal and resistance tests because the connectors are passive pass-throughs, with only an LED as an active element. Units are compatible across smartphones, tablets, power banks, docks, and laptops, including MacBooks that lack native MagSafe.
