85W Magsafe power adapter with MacBook Pro 13"

Can I use an 85W Magsafe power adapter with my MacBook Pro 13" which comes with the 60W?

My 60W charger died but I really need to charge my MacBook and I have an 85W.

It will cause any problems to my Mac?

Yes, you can use a 85W charger.


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.”
