Laptop Power Plug-in Damage

One real weakness in a laptop is the power plug-in jack at the back.  If you twist the power plug-in part in the jack, you can damage it.  This is not a replaceable part that I am aware of.  Repairs probably will require soldering components inside.  This can be expensive.

Use care when unplugging the power plug-in from the jack so that you do not damage the jack.  Do not move your laptop since this can twist the power plug-in going into the jack at the back of the laptop.  Also place the power block unit either on the floor or safely beside the laptop so that it will not fall and twist out the power plug-in.
