I was looking for it for ages. Please make a British version as well! This is neat!

  Glad you like it! But I thought the UK duckhead already has a ground pin? https://www.apple.com/uk/shop/product/MKU63B/A/67w-usb-c-power-adapter https://www.apple.com/uk/shop/product/MKU63B/A/67w-usb-c-pow...

    At least on my older mag safe charger, only 2 pins are connected. You can pull off the UK plug and plug in the US or EU one, or even just a regular figure 8 lead (not sure of the correct name for these!) Had a few times where I've had to disconnect the charger as I could feel an effect like static electricity on the metal case of the MacBook.

      Oh wow! Sure enough, the UK adapter _has_ the ground pin, but it's not connected to anything . https://apple.stackexchange.com/questions/17575/how-to-properly-ground-a-macbook-pro#answer-314954 https://apple.stackexchange.com/questions/17575/how-to-prope... Alright if I sell any of this North American grounded version, I'll make one for y'all across the pond!

    That's right, but the short version isn't connected to the ground. https://discussions.apple.com/thread/8594979 https://discussions.apple.com/thread/8594979

      I just found this too. So strange to have a useless prong--maybe it's just for mechanical support? IMO if thats the case they should make the whole prong plastic to indicate its lack of electrical function.
