When I bought my MacBook Pro and my wifes refurbished MacBook, I really didn’t consider the fact that they had different sized power supplies, but after reviewing the Apple website, their power adapters/chargers certainly aren’t the same size (or at least aren’t supposed to be).

A little bit bummed that we couldn’t share power supplies around the house or on vacation, I started looking into pricing, to find that both power supplies sell for $79.00. Then, for some reason, I decided to check our actual power supplies and they were both the 85W versions!

So if you’re worried about buying a refurbished machine, think again! You might get a little something extra. And if you happen to get a little something less, call Apple, they have great customer service and support, I’m sure they’d be glad to fix the problem for you!
