Don't throw away your dead Apple MacBook Charger.
You might need it if you will decide to get an external battery for your notebook. As you probably know, Apple forced HyperMac to stop making MagSafe compatible cables...
Instead of providing a direct MagSafe connection to the battery, HyperMac now lets users connect to Apple's MagSafe Airline Adapter. The catch here is that the airline adapter doesn't charge MacBook batteries—it only allows users to keep their internal batteries from dying while connected to the HyperMac battery.
That's why the company has a second solution: a DIY modification kit so that users can tweak their own MagSafe connectors from Apple to work with HyperMac batteries.
Dear Apple, don't be evil. To me it looks like you're sueing the wrong guys this time.
