If you miss the good old days when Apple provided magnetic power cables using their MagSafe technology, and would like to add the awesome safety feature to your new MacBook system, you may be interested in a new USB-C adapter which has been created by MagC based in Seattle.
The MagC adapter provides a stylish aluminium upgrade for your USB-C port and enables a magnetic power connection which can automatically disconnect if the cable is tugged, leaving your laptop undamaged and still on your desk. This innovative solution not only brings back the convenience of MagSafe but also ensures that your expensive device remains safe from accidental falls and damage.
The Evolution of Charging Technology
Over the years, charging technology has seen significant advancements. Apple’s MagSafe, introduced in 2006, was a revolutionary step in laptop charging. It featured a magnetic connection that would safely detach if someone tripped over the power cord, preventing the laptop from being pulled off a surface. However, in 2016, Apple decided to replace MagSafe with USB-C, a more versatile and industry-standard port that supports not only charging but also data transfer and video output.
While USB-C brought many benefits, it lacked the safety feature that MagSafe offered. This gap in the market led to the creation of the MagC adapter. The MagC adapter combines the best of both worlds: the versatility of USB-C and the safety of MagSafe. It is designed to be sleek and unobtrusive, blending seamlessly with the modern aesthetics of new MacBook models.
Watch the video below to learn more about the MagSafe, USB-C, and Thunderbolt 3 adapter which has taken to Kickstarter this week and is now available to back with pledges starting from just $29. Shipping is expected to take place during December 2017 if all goes well.
Why MagC is a Game Changer
In 2016, MagSafe was removed from all new Apple products, replaced by USB-C, the new industrial standard. We decided that we need to bring back MagSafe, we need to bring back one of the most enduring designs of Steve Jobs. So, we worked relentlessly to design MagC.
The MagC adapter is not just a nostalgic nod to the past; it is a practical solution for modern users. The magnetic connection ensures that your laptop remains safe from sudden tugs and pulls, which is especially useful in busy environments like cafes, offices, and homes with pets or children. Additionally, the adapter supports high-speed charging and data transfer, making it a versatile tool for everyday use.
The MagC adapter is also designed with durability in mind. Its aluminium construction ensures that it can withstand daily wear and tear, while its compact size makes it easy to carry around. Whether you’re a student, a professional, or a frequent traveler, the MagC adapter offers a reliable and convenient charging solution.
