Old plugs none of my two laptops worked on extension

Works well to extend and/or convert plug types for low power stuff. Got it as a Deal of the Day for a great price. You CAN... + Get a longer length by using two sets with any matching plug and jack at the middle. + Change one plug size to another by using a plug and non-matching jack. + Get two weak thin circular magnets (inside the box) and two matching flat metal pieces (inside the flap) that can be useful for crafts. * Fit an Adaptaplug plug in the plug end, but you may not get a reliable connection as the Adaptaplug pins are smaller than the fat pin used on these plugs. You CANNOT... - Accidentally (or intentionally) change the polarity of the connection - the jacks and plugs have one fat pin and one skinny pin, so they only fit one way. - Make a Plug-Plug or Jack-Jack cable - to change a connection from a plug to a jack or jack to plug. Plugs only fit on the black end, jacks only fit on the gray end. The pin spacing is different on the jacks vs the plugs. - Use the jacks and plugs on Adaptaplug sockets (AC/DC adapters or extension cables) - the fat pin is too fat to fit.

It's good item and you get different sizes. But this style is not meant to work with everything. Even it fits but still not able to go all the way in.
