It will limit the power consumption but will not hurt the computer. I ask this because I've heard that if your computer is using the charger to power it and charge the battery rather than just charge the batter, it limits it's power consumption and can hurt the computer. None as such, but it will take much longer to charge the MBP to 100% If it is indeed of a lower wattage (which I assume it is), will it have any negative effect if my macbook is off. I'm al in the short term I need to be able to charge my computer as I use it for all my work so something is better than nothing, but if it has the potential to harm my computer I want to replace the charger as soon as possible.Įither way I'll be replacing the charger in every outcome except if my charger is indeed and 85 watt charger which I highly doubt. I'd also like to know, if it is indeed of a lower wattage (which I assume it is), will it have any negative effect if my macbook is off.
#2014 macbook pro charger wattage how to
However, what I want to know is how to tell the wattage of my old macbook charger as it doesn't seem to be written anywhere on it. I've read that using a lower wattage charger can harm your computer in the long term and considering the amount of money I payed for my macbook, I'd rather pay the $75 not doing so is going to harm it. Today I bought an adaptor for the magsafe 1 to 2 connection in the hopes that a charger I purchased in 2012 for my 2010 13-inch macbook pro would charge it instead of having to pay $75 for a new charger. I'm currently using an early 2013, 15-inch retina macbook pro and my charger recently broke.
