macally PS-AC4 AC Adapter for G4 PowerBook

Pros: Only took me getting electrocuted once with my original adapter, to switch to this one. It actually outlasted the powerbook. Very reliable, no hums, no heat issues.

Cons: Wish it came in black :( the white is nice and clean. but the cord is long so it ends up laying on the ground. get scratched and skuffed.

Pros: None

Cons: Makes a funny noise when plugged into my G4 and the screen flickers while it makes a noise.

Pros: This third party power adapter is a great alternative to the Apple stock adapter. Looks different but does the job. It took just the same amount of time to charge my laptop compared to my original Apple adapter. So far there are no signs of twisting, fraying or over heating. Great for reviving that G4 PowerBook without digging deep into your wallet

Cons: Sometimes has a little difficulty starting a charge cycle when the computer is already on, which disappears within a minute of the charge. Also, it is harder to wind up than the stock Apple charger. Last, There is no light on the plug to indicate power/charge state (only a LED on the adapter signals power from the wall)

Other Thoughts: Used on a 12" Powerbook G4 running OS X 10.4.

Pros: Inexpensive, durable, and oh yeah it works. 17 inch G4 Powerbook charges in about the same amt of time as original. Long cord and no ground plug. Doesn't get as hot as stock power supply.

Cons: No status light on plug.

Other Thoughts: Newegg. Great product, great value, great purchase. Keep up the good work guys.

Pros: Works fine on a dual usb 15" ibook (g3).
Fast shipping. Very happy so far.

Cons: none

Pros: Works well, starts charging immediately. Long cord with velcro makes it easy to use on my bed.

Cons: Started acting funny for a minute, but I locked one of the cables in place (which I hadn't noticed earlier) so that seemed to help.

Other Thoughts: Good for the price, quick service and shipping. Very good overall.

Pros: The power supply is white and matches well with the "ice" color of my ibook. The blue light on the power supply makes it easy to tell the unit is functional. The included velcro strap is a nice touch and really helps with taming wild cords.

Cons: none

Other Thoughts: New Egg is awesome. I tried buying this same product from another vendor, but canceled after getting the "run around." With New I never have to worry. Items ship fast and are usually top notch.

Pros: Cheap and durable. Don't listen to djTA630, he doesn't know what he's talking about. This is a 45W adapter. His 17" PBG4 needs a 65W adapter, go look it up on EveryMac.com. No wonder it takes him so long to charge with this.

Cons: Doesn't have Apple's little light around the plug, gets dirty easily, but who cares as long as it gives you power.

Pros: If you don't have another adapter around and are short on $$, this may be a good adapter for you.

Cons: Charges *extremely* slow. It takes almost 7 hours to charge a battery to full power during a workday. (While using light-duty applications such as web browsing or word processor applications.)

Other Thoughts: I've used this for a good 3 weeks now - not so happy with the experience of the product. It's a good adapter to have around if one isn't available, so I ended up keeping this in the office if I (or co-workers) forget an adapter at home. Also, I ended up purchasing another certified adapter for my 17" PBG4 due to the unacceptable slowness of the charge.

Pros: It's labeled as a G4 PowerBook adapter, but it works fine with my G3 iBook (2 USB /1 Firewire version). You can't beat Newegg's price or fast shipment.

Cons: There's no green/amber status light on the end of the plug. This makes very little difference to me, as you can just as easily monitor the battery status via the menu bar icon.

Other Thoughts: This cord would make a great second adapter to leave at home or the office.
