Yeah but...if not in use why would there be current flow other than to tiny little resistors and even if them why? Heat means using battery!

When in use or just hanging there too?

If it doesn't work out, I have another solution lined up for you...
Understeer: You will hit the wall with the front end.
Oversteer: You will hit the wall with the rear end.
Horsepower: How hard you will hit the wall.
Torque: How far you will move the wall.
Gone hunting with Alec Baldwin and Dick Cheney. Back soon.

This is a chicken-egg conundrum because I only use it when I'm using it.

Ok Ok sorry for the confusion. This item has a magnetic deal that you could hook it to the laptop and leave it in place permanently whether using it or not. Of course I won't doing that now.

I'm just being an obtuse smart-arse, sorry Billy. Serious answer is I only plug it in when I need to plug in a device so I never leave it hanging with nothing plugged in.

What he said - less the "sorry" bit.

Ok I officially hate Apple!
Just saw a flash commercial for the new MacBook Pro M1 and it shows all the assorted inputs are now back eliminating needing all the Dongles-Dingles-Doofusses or what ever they are called.
