It's on the line voltage side like any other UPS, so not as efficient as you could be with a solution that didn't have to convert AC to DC then back to AC then to DC again in the brick. But with Apple's proprietary charging connector soldered to the device end of the brick, what else can you do about it?
- Scoundreller 4y agoMy MacBook Air will happily draw 5w at 5V from a USB-A power bank from years ago through the laptop’s USB-C connector. In short, it will take whatever it can get and boost. Kinda inefficient to run 2x boosts, but it does the job. Will buy you time during use and slowly charge while closed.
