1400/iBook G3 Power Adapter Plug
Posted by: LaPorta on 2021-09-03 15:39:54
Has anyone yet located a source of the same diameter and length power plugs for these machines? I have two working 1400 PSUs, but with somewhat tenuous cables that I do not want to fray any further. I was hoping to find the plug and just mate it with a universal 45W adapter.

I am searching for the same plugs. No success searching google and calling local suppliers.

I believe I read somewhere that the external metal part of these chargers isn't strictly necessary, and that some kind of headphone-jack connector can be used as a replacement part. I can't quite remember much more than this, and I don't even know if it is reliable information, but perhaps this could be of use to you...
