Power Adapter Extension Cable compatible

Hello,

I own a 13" Macbook Pro (Early 2015) with a Power Adapter Extension Cable. I have just purchased the 14" Macbook Pro (2021) and I am wondering if I will be able to use the Power Adapter from my old Macbook Pro instead of purchasing a new one? Are they compatible?

Yes the extension cable itself is universal—replacing the duckhead.


The 1.8-meter Power Adapter Extension Cable is an AC extension lead that provides extra length for your Apple power adapter. Use it with MagSafe and MagSafe 2 power adapters, 10W and 12W USB-A power adapters and 29W, 30W, 61W, 67W, 87W, 96W, and 140W USB-C power adapters.

Thank you ! So the extension is compatible with MagSafe 3 even though it doesn't say it?


Yes— I do not know how else to say it.


It does say as posted above directly from the HT linked above in so many words— the 140W USB-C is the magsafe 3. This is not the end you are asking about. The extension cord is power to the brick—this is the Universal part


The magsafe 3 is power from the brick to the computer.
