I like how the opened one in the pictures has a frayed cord.
Also the ad says 85w but it says 60w on second pic.

It shorts the fuck out of your macbook.
Never buy off the shelf chargers.
After 12 out of every 31 shitting themselfs out I don't advise it.

The worst and most likely what can happen is that your battery will be damaged and your house will burn down.
It will burn your house down.

Housefire definitely.
And the chances of that with cheap chinkshit power adapters are quite significant.
You die.

The internal transformer/capacitor assembly has a high chance of exploding.
Literally don't buy these.
Buy the original. Don't be a c͏uck

you burn down your apartment bulding, killing you, 200 residents and 10 firefighters
i have one for my macboo pro op, i've had it for about 6 months and the only issue i have is that it needs to be properly aligned when plugin to the macbook. i only use it if my battery is dead and i never leave it plugged in while i'm not around.

>> buys 2k computer
>> too cheap to replace charger
The worst that can happen is that you use an Apple product.
i bought a few of these. the worst that i've experienced is that the brick hums at an all but inaudible volume.
maybe they'll all blow up in 10 minutes, but i don't suspect so.

The fakes sometimes have spelling mistakes on the regulatory stuff printed on the bottom.
Almost all fakes radiate EMI like mad.
There are some very scary photos online of the guts of the fakes. Little insulation, no shielding, sub-standard design, etc.
Your house can burn down, and you only have onsite backups.
That's the worst.
Laptop power supplies sometimes catch fire, because they're under sized for the amprage the laptop's charging circuit pulls. You can get away with pilling too much for short times, or once in a while, but it slowly degrades the unit, until it smokes and catches fire.
Now imagine you left this plugged in overnight, then weekend up in the morning to go stand in line at the unemployment office, and forgot to unplug it.
Not worth it OP.
