I discovered I could charge two MacBooks on one charger by daisy chaining them, for some reason I didn't expect that to work. The second laptop didn't charge very fast if at all, but you can keep working while you left your charger at hame.


Can you charge one MacBook with two chargers? Maybe that would spread the heat out a little more.


I've managed to "charge" mine with a Nintendo Switch adapter. Showed the charging symbol but still depleted battery over time. Just slowly.


The Nintendo Switch charger only puts out 39 watts, and I think the Macbook Pro charger puts out 96 watts, so it makes sense that it would charge slowly.
