85 W Power Adapter (Brick) for the 13 MacBook Pro?

[Karlchen]

Hi,
this might have been discussed before, but I just cannot find a threat about it:

May I use my old 85W Brick of my older 15″ for the new unibody 13" Macbook Pro?
The MacSafe Adapter certainly fits. But is ist safe to use it ?
Please help

Thanx from Germany.

Yes.

That was quick...

Thank you, that was a quick and clear reply...

I am certainly not good with electricity,,, as you can tell.
So even though it is bigger (85 W vs. 60W), it will not harm battery or the brick?

It won't harm it, the number on the power adapter is the maximum output, it can be scaled back. I use my 85 watt power adapter from my MacBook Pro on my MacBook Air frequently.
