I will continue to inspect the pins on both the adaptor and the computer and clean them as needed with a white pencil eraser. I just had the power adaptor replace and before using it, I vigorously rubbed a white pencil eraser over the pins (which are actually dimples) on the computer power socket. The problem eventually will prevent current from passing through the connection and stop the computer from charging. Once the pins heat up, they tarnish and then are not able to conduct current well, causing them to heat even more. The current appears to be passing through only two pins of the five pins on at the magnetic connection. I believe the problem is that the computer requires high current to charge, particularly when the battery is at a low charge level. All replacements and the repair were more or less temporary. I replaced several charging adapters and have had the charging port on the computer replaced.
