Griffin GC42252 BreakSafe Magnetic USB-C Power
Cable
Overview
Magnetic breakaway power cable for USB-C laptops.
Apple's MagSafe connector has saved literally millions of laptops from
destruction caused by tripping over one's power cord. But with the introduction
of USB-C on new MacBooks, this safety feature is absent.
THE BREAKSAFE CONNECTOR
BreakSafe's patented quick-release magnetic connector plugs into your
laptop's USB-C port and safely disconnects from the rest of the cable when under
stress or strain, like tripping over the power cord. The streamlined magnetic
connector is only 12.8 mm deep so you can leave it plugged into your laptop's
USB-C port when not in use.
BREAKSAFE IS DESIGNED TO PROTECT YOUR LAPTOP AND YOU
Because it is designed to carry power sufficient to charge your laptop's
battery (up to 60 watts), BreakSafe incorporates four different safety features
to protect you and your laptop from accidental or intentional misuse:
| Visual: Visual markings on the connector
housing show the user the correct way to attach the cable and connector. |
| Magnetic: BreakSafe's magnets only allow it
to be connected the correct way, and ensure the cord's polarity is consistent
with both the power supply and the device being powered. |
| Structural: BreakSafe has two small keys
molded into its magnetic connector that physically prevent the magnets from
engaging, and prevent the cable from connecting incorrectly. |
| Electrical: BreakSafe's central ground pin is
the first conductive element to touch when joining the cable and connector
This ensures that any static electrical charges are dissipated before before
the cable begins passing power from supply to device. |
USING BREAKSAFE
Use BreakSafe with the USB-C power supply that came with your laptop.
BreakSafe is rated up to 60 watts (20 volts @ 3 amps), and has been designed and
tested to meet USB-C power standards. Please note that BreakSafe is for charging
power only; data and video are not supported.
