Not sure if it's been posted before or if anyone tried before but I was in a pinch and plugged in my 140w MBP 16 charger into my M1 Air instead of the usual multiport GaN chargers I've been using and it was charging at 94w.

The computer went from 5-70% in around 15-20 min which was extremely surprising
 
Did you use an inline USB-PD inspector? Otherwise, it's not accurate. If you're reading it from System Information, it's definitely not accurate. Any charger 96W and above will show as 94W.

Previous tests show 40-50W drawn using an Apple 67W charger.
 
Nope, no issues but I'm just surprised it charged so quickly and certainly don't mind it
