Why?
Because the DC barrel charger was rugged as FUCK compared to this USB-C port.
Even though I killed my OG Mighty by plugging a 24v adapter into it instead of its 12v adapter since the DC barrel plugs were the same size…
It still took me over 3 years to kill it by plugging the wrong voltage charger in.
The Mighty+ I bought to replace it ~3 months ago won’t charge unless the USB-C cable is in the perfect position anymore.
I was super excited about being able to use a MacBook charger, faster heat times with the +. But now I just have regret for not saving money by buying another OG Mighty instead of upgrading to the Mighty+ when I had to get a replacement.
It should still be covered under warranty.
ya i’lll get it swapped, just a bummer still lol
I’ll be more careful with the second one now that i know this something I’ll probably break again being rough.
I don’t know…I went through 6 of the OG mighty chargers, they failed all the time for me. The speed that the + heats up, and that everything in my house is moving to USB-C made the + a game changer. I’ve had to RMA my + once now, but it wasn’t related to the charge port going bad (display stopped working).

Maybe it was my MacBook adapter getting shitty 🤣
Decided to try a different random one I found and it seems way better ¯\(ツ)/¯
