Q: Can I use a 60W MagSafe power adaptor on my late 2010 13" mac air ?
Hi
I have to replace my 45w MagSafe Batterie charger again , due to the the rubber shield near the magnetic connector has split and exposed the braided shield to the cables. this is the second time in 3.5 years. I have some problems getting a 45W MagSafe power Adaptor.
Would it be safe to use a 60W MagSafe Adaptor?
MacBook Air, Mac OS X (10.7.2)

Yes.
Power Adapter/ cord wattage
General information
“Power adapters for Apple notebooks are available in 45W, 60W, and 85W varieties. You should use the appropriate wattage power adapter for your Apple notebook. You can use a higher wattage adapter without issue, but doing this won't make your computer charge faster or operate any differently. Lower wattage adapters will not provide enough power.”
