Your MacBook Pro  uses ‘smart charging’ to charge in the optimum way, and only when necessary. Plugged in is Not necessarily actively charging. There is substantial hardware and software cooperating on battery and charging issues. Simply asserting a charging voltage against one of the interface(s) will NOT successfully charge your MacBook Pro.


The computer is in control of the entire process, and it only draws what it wants, when it wants it. Using a larger power adapter than the original has never been an issue (and will not charge any differently.)
