Review on 💡 ELECJET AnyWatt USB C Adapter - Compatible with MacBook MagSafe Charger, Type-C to MagSafe Converter for Thunderbolt Cinema Display Charging - M1 MacBook Pro Air (White) by Pedro Curtis

I was an early adopter of the Apple Thunderbolt Display. My mid-2011 MacBook Air was still running great this year, but I stumbled upon an offer I couldn't refuse and upgraded to a 2016 15-inch MacBook Pro. 5k, USB-C display. However, I have some problems when choosing a display. It seems like every option had trade-offs. Do I have to spend millions of dollars or should I sacrifice some features like display quality, built-in USB/Thunderbolt hub, built-in camera microphone and speakers or even cosmetics? (I mean, it's pretty hard to find a display that looks as good as Apple's Thunderbolt display.) Well, an article pops up that suggests keeping the Thunderbolt display. The author suggests that 4K and 5k displays consume LOTS of bandwidth and system resources, while Thunderbolt display is less demanding and actually pretty good. with what I already had. I'd rather have extra energy for the times I'm multitasking or working with audio or video. Second, I happened to notice that EVERYONE is selling their Thunderbolt displays and there is business to be had! I took a closer look and was able to purchase a second display for $250. (That's a lot cheaper than the $1,000 I originally paid for mine.) However, you should be able to plug it into a USB-C/Thunderbolt 3 port, and Apple has introduced and adapted just that. This is a Thunderbolt 2 to Thunderbolt 3 (USB-C) adapter and it works great. Except Thunderbolt 1-2 doesn't power your MacBook, so a MagSafe power adapter is also connected to the Thunderbolt display. Requires connection of both (two) cables. Unfortunately, MagSafe doesn't connect to USB-C, and Apple didn't make an adapter for it. Well, that's no problem. You don't really need MagSafe since you can power your MacBook from its own power adapter. It's just a docking and undocking issue as you have to carry the power adapter with you. It seems such a waste of time when you have an AC adapter (Mag Safe) but no way to plug it in. Okay, I've searched and searched for the adapter but to no avail. It seems that nobody made an adapter, but then I came across this device. I carefully read the reviews and information about the Force. It seemed to work, but it wouldn't provide enough power - but still slow down power consumption considerably - where I'd get 12-14 hours or more of extra battery life. It sounded good enough and I placed my order. When the order arrived I was very surprised to find that not only was it working and delivering power, but I was staying at 100% battery life for the last two days of heavy use. So I am more than happy with my purchase. I give five stars for everything except value for money. I find it a little pricey for what it is, but still worth it to me. ($50 for an Apple Thunderbolt adapter and $20 for it is starting to make it prohibitive to maintain the cost of the display when updated displays are so cheap. Luckily I only have $30 for the Thunderbolt on eBay adapter and paid $20 for it Not bad considering that I need a $100+ choice of dongles or hub to connect all my USB devices (condenser mic, superdrive, external storage, keyboard and mouse, midi keyboard and iPhone charger) and leaving my MacBook charger in my backpack Highly recommended.
