Adaptor or other way to use an old PowerBook Mag2 charger for a M1 MBP
I have several old chargers from my intel MBP. Mag1 and Mag2. For version 1 to version 2 there was an adaptor. Is there any way I can use a version 2 for the M1 MBP?

No, the old MagSafe adapters will not work on newer MacBook Pro models.
The power-level negotiation protocol has been changed from an Apple proprietary version to a variant of USB-C power delivery.
Older MagSafe adapters are worth a few dollars on the used market.

The MacBook Pro m1 does not use magsafe for charging right? Or do you have the m2 one? Mine M1 MacBook Pro has usb c charging which is not compatible with magsafe
Mine came with a magsafe

Thanks problem solved indeed

So if I want to charge over USB, I have a MacBook Pro (16-inch, 2021), can this be done too? And how does one do this?
