G53JW AC Slot problems

I bend the AC cord backwards when i use my laptop. it gets in the way of the mouse and restricts movement which is very annoying. But bending it backwards gave me problems. after months of using it that way, just by moving the cord i go from "ac mode" to "battery mode" to ac to battery mode and so on and so forth. now i have to set it straight. which is very inconvenient. was wondering if you can buy something like an elbow for the adapter cord?

something like this one in the picture

Amazon.com: Laptop/Notebook AC Adapter/Power Supply Charger+Cord for Toshiba Satellite A100 A110 A135 A135-S4527 A135-S4656 A135-S4666 A135-S7404 A200 A205 A215 A85 L25 L25-S119 L25-S1192 L25-S1193 L35 M115-S1061 M35X P205 a135-s2246 a135-s2276 a135-

one that bends 90 degrees, used like an extension, and made specifically for asus rog laptops.
any ideas guys? thank you in advance!

 

This started happening today on my G73, which is about 13 months old. I too have to bend the cord back slightly because it's in a bad position in relation to the mouse - but this morning it started to get very touchy and hard to get it to connect. There's no visible damage to the cord.

In the last few minutes it's gotten so bad that there is no position I can put it in that will make a connection and allow the laptop to charge. And given the terrible battery life, I've only got about 45 minutes until shutdown!

Another lovely issue to add to the long list of hassles I've had with this laptop. Whereas my five year old cheapo dell laptop has never had any.

 

And that is why ---> TO FUTURE OWNERS OUT THERE, dont bend the cord back! shinytrucs and I learned that the hard way. Keep it straight and "all izz well"

EDIT: I found this elbow which i think is a good fit forthe g53JW plugs

I suggest owners should get something like this to avoid future damages on the cords.
