Frequent power outages; not very smooth

First of all I can confirm that my MacBook Pro charges at 86W when using this adapter, just like it did before it was plugged into the chain. I didn't check the data throughput. But it also doesn't sit as flat as I'd like, and the corner isn't rounded in any way. I just wanted to leave it in my laptop all the time, but now that I have it, it seems like it could easily get stuck and damaged. Also, it's too big to keep in a smartphone all the time. Otherwise it seems to do everything it claims to do. Also, the body is reversible. It can be attached to the magnet in any direction. Update: After a few months of use, I'm still using it, but it bugs me how often it turns off temporarily. It's rare that he doesn't accidentally turn off the power for a few seconds, usually about a dozen times in a row. This is really annoying, mostly because it means that my screen is getting brighter and darker due to a power outage. At the same time, it almost always starts to supply power again without intervention. Also, the indicator light is at the end of the plug, which is indeed the worst place for it. You cannot see the display during normal use of the device. I end up putting my fingers around it to see if it illuminates them. Simply wrapping the flashlight lens around the edge of the connector would solve this problem. It probably wouldn't be such a big problem either if I wasn't constantly worrying about it starting up again. However, when plugged in, it works fine.
