Why my laptop chargers never last?
Once again the laptop charger I have that is only a year old is not working. This happens every time. Right away the cord tangles up and there is no way to stop it from happening.
Then it is always a matter of time before it stops charging my laptop battery due to that. Is there anyway to stop this from happening? I am sick of buying new chargers and laptops every damn year because of this?
How am I careless with a cord when it just lays around and tangles up on its own lol

See the photo added below. Those were new two years ago, they still coil up back to the exact original shape. They will still look just the same in another five years.
Your cables are not alive and do not tangle themselves. You need to learn to handle them properly.
------------------
Because you are not taking reasonable care of them.
Never pull the cable/cord tight, and when you put it away try to let it go back to its original shape using the existing bends, rather than re-coiling it differently every time.
I have never had a laptop charger fail (using laptops since they first came out) as I buy good quality equipment and take care of things.

" Right away the cord tangles up and there is no way to stop it from happening. " dont tangle the cord up.... pretty simple. when you are done charging it just wrap the cord up and put it away...
basically you are not treating your equipment properly and are mad when it breaks...
