Hello! I have a MacBook, which I have converted to a Chromebook, by downloading ChromeOS Flex. The MagSafe 1 charger I was using is badly frayed, and needs to be replaced. Will this cheap USB-C to MagSafe from Amazon work OK with my small Apple USB-C charger brick?
Thank you.

Sadly no, this is a USB-C power delivery solution. It allows the newer MagSafe systems to use a USB-C charger. The MagSafe connector is also physically different it’s longer and narrower than the original MagSafe.

Do you know of another low-cost, easy alternative?
@wmf10 - There are no alternative charger. Be careful knockoff chargers often damage your system and some are so bad they can set a fire! One of my employers engineers forgot his charger in a pinch bought one at a local shop to charge his system only to have both go up in fire. It cost the company over 2 mill in damages.
That's not good, but thank you for the warning!
@wmf10 - If you’re set don’t forget to accept the answer.
Apple in newer generations did address the lack of choice, moving to a power standard with the 2016 and newer MacBook systems embracing USB-C. As people didn’t like the USB-C connection as tripping on the power cord would cause the system to tumble to the floor breaking it in the process! Apple then re-embraced the MagSafe interface!
Being the third version of the interface, all three use different voltages and control interface.
Actually the one showed in the pic ain't good for the magsafe 1 system. BUT, the other one "L Shaped" adapter works just perfect with the whole series of MacBooks depending on magsafe 1. How I can tell about it?
Just because I use currently not one but several of those adapters with generic "ugreen" power adapters (60-100w) with usb c power delivery and a generic usb pd cable. Don't hesitate, buy it if you still need it
