Macbook battery issues

Using a higher wattage power adapter is not a problem, your Mac will only draw the amount of power it needs.

Your battery health has declined because that’s normal for lithium batteries. They have a useful lifespan of 7 to 8 years, that’s due to the chemistry inside them. It’s nothing you’ve done, it’s just time to have your battery replaced.

When fully charged and connected to power, the Mac uses the AC power, but may occasionally draw a bit of power from the battery if it needs it to run at a higher load.

Batteries are a wear item, like the soles of your shoes and the tires on your car. Their expected lifetime depends on use (as reflected in Charge cycles) and also in the passage of time, used or not. After a while, you should expect to have to replace the battery.

Battery life also depends on two factors you may be able to control a bit better. Lithium polymer batteries deteriorate when they get too hot, and when they are subject to very deep discharge. These should be avoided when possible.

Despite using these batteries in millions of Apple devices, there is still a lot of of randomness in exactly which battery will fail when.

Apple SUGGESTS (but does not Warrant) that your battery MAY last as long as 1000 charge cycles, provided all other factors are well-controlled.

Apple uses the criterion that a battery that doesn't to hold 80 percent of its original charge capacity should be serviced, and likely replaced.

When designing systems, that 80 percent rule is intended so that, over a Very large sample of devices, almost all will be able to achieve their 'mission' -- still have at least 80 percent capacity at the three-year mark.

Ohh the age…. So should i buy a battery for macbook pro 2017 or the latest one ie. 2024 MacBook?

You should have Apple or an Apple Authorized Service Provider replace the battery. They're not really user-replaceable.
