Power Adapter Source

Measure the output voltage on the pins, if it is the full rated voltage they are shitty knock off just like the rest. Original Apple ones will only enable full output voltage after being connected to the machine.

Yep, bullshit. Extremely convincing, but still bullshit. Thanks for the tip. It came up with full voltage. My genuine 85W was showing around 6.5V. Too bad. I really need to find a good source for genuine adapters.

There are some listed on Ebay. I have bought from someone in FL and they did send me REAL ones. Around $22 I payed when I took 100 of them, 60W ones.

That sounds pretty ideal. Let me know if you happen to remember the user. I've looked and can't find anything that seems legit.
