Charger & Cord Storage?

[tardman91]

I just got a new M1 MacBook Air and it's my first with the new, small USB C charger. I'm on the go a lot so I really miss the fold-out prongs of the older chargers that you could wrap the cord around. Are there any solutions that you guys are using for this? I saw a couple of products on Amazon, but they looked pretty large and ugly. I was hoping there would be something a bit sleeker.

The Amazon Basic cord (

) is light in the 3' version. I use a cord tie and do not wrap the cord around the charger.

Both items fit easily into my laptop case pocket.

Do you mean the old 2 cord hooks from the Apple MBP of 2011 and before magsafe chargers? If so, I don't know if there is one that is small like the 30 Watt charger that comes with the M1 Air.

I have a little mesh bag that is about the size of the trackpad. Keep charger, and USB-c to lightening for my iPhone iPad. That way, when I travel just need the one charger.

This is pretty sleek and about the same size as the old chargers when the cord was wrapped on them.

Thanks! I just ordered two. One for my MacBook Air and another for my wife's iPad Pro.
