Hi,

My one year old boy "sucked" on the end of my power adaptor !
Now I plug it in and does not work .. I left it overnight .. still does not work (a very faint green light is on when I plug it - no the usual green intensity).
Any thoughts?
I tried to look for a replacement but it looks like will have to buy a whole new adaptor .. any place to get the MagSafe part of the power adaptor !

Thanks

There's no way to get just the end unfortunately. I think Apple are the only people to hold the patents to it.

Interesting that it now only glows faintly, my 2nd MacBook does that, but the Magsafe charger works fine on the 1st MacBook.
