| Oct 2, 2019 at 6:44 | comment | added | Capstone | @n1000 the wattage is 85 W. Its a new original apple adapter that works fine on other similar laptops. | |
| Oct 2, 2019 at 6:43 | comment | added | Capstone | @MelvinJefferson I tried going into recovery mode and seeing the status. It behaves the same way. | |
| Oct 2, 2019 at 6:43 | comment | added | Capstone | @nijave Yes. It charges with laptop powered off. | |
| Oct 1, 2019 at 2:17 | comment | added | Melvin Jefferson | Have you tried checking this in safe mode? | |
| Sep 27, 2019 at 14:28 | comment | added | nijave | Does it charge with the laptop powered off? | |
| Sep 27, 2019 at 10:10 | comment | added | n1000 | What is the wattage of your power adapter? It is written on the adapter, but can also be looked up in the system report under Power > AC Charger Information. | |
| Sep 27, 2019 at 10:07 | comment | added | n1000 | The slow boot time is due to the fact that the MacBook will throttle the CPU in order not to exceed the power output of the power adapter. | |

| Sep 22, 2019 at 19:45 | comment | added | Andrew Maier | Agree with @Tetsujin. But do you use this laptop as a laptop or is it permanently connected to the power? Charging a battery permanently might damage the battery over time. But if is it new get if fixed by the seller. | |
| Sep 22, 2019 at 9:51 | comment | added | Tetsujin | Cycle count: 27 would tell me it's a new battery. If it's not an original Apple battery, contact the seller. Of course, if it is an original Apple battery, contact Apple. | |
