Hi ken, great article. I have little knowledge of such things but have been looking for the answer to something for a long time. Not directly related but maybe you could help. My magsafe 1 cable was fraid on my macbook pro 15' psu. Decided to cut off and re-solder. About to do this i was interupted by a phone call and when returned to the job forgot i hadn't checked the polarity and basically wired + and - the wrong way around. Suprise suprise, my laptop no longer charges the battery. Trying to work out what has physically happened. I swopped the DC in board as it was fairly easy, no difference. It's a 2011 macbook with a removeable battery. New battery still no charging. Any thoughts? Thanks in advance.
