Therefore I was thinking in order to minimise the risk - does anyone think it is a good idea to try and get hold of a MacBook Air charger and use that on my MBP 13" instead? Do Air chargers even work with MPBs? I have heard that the issue is down to the design of the connector point where the wire goes into the magsafe connector - and as such, the differently designed connectors which are used on macbook air and those attached to apple display units mean that these connectors have not experienced any issues. I now feel unable to leave my new 13" MBP connected to the mains unattended - which is not really a desirable situation. I am not sure if this is being built up to be more than it is - but there do seem to be a number of genuine cases. I am becoming increasingly concerned by the rising number of reports of people's magsafe connectors for their MBPs bursting into flames.
