[SOLVED] Where can I get a reliable power supply for a 2011 MBPro?

[al92]

I've got a late-2011 13" MacBook Pro. For the first 5 - 6 years of owning it (from new) I bought exclusively OEM Apple power supplies for it but each of these only lasted 4 - 6 months before breaking and at almost £80 each I couldn't afford to keep buying the real thing so I started buying non-brand replacements from ebay.

These have mostly fared better than the real Apple ones but the latest one lasted 2 months before just stopping working for no apparent reason.

I've never had windows laptop chargers break down as frequently as this and I'm getting pretty fed up of trying to find something that will last. Is there anywhere I can get a half decent replacement MagSafe 60w power supply without paying Apple's prices?

Thanks

I can't vouch for this cheaper option:

However, if you are going through power supplies as previously described, you have a different issue other than simply failing power supplies. Are you handling them roughly? Using with poor/inconsistent power sources?

Any other issues with your MBP?
