Can I use a higher‑wattage adapter (e.g. 75 W or 90 W) instead of 65 W?

Yes — provided the adapter matches the required specs (19 V / 3.42 A / 65 W), uses the correct plug size, and includes safety protections (over‑voltage, over‑current, short‑circuit, thermal).
-
Will this adapter work internationally (in other countries)?
Yes — with its universal 100–240 V AC input, the adapter can handle different mains voltages. You may just need a plug adapter depending on the destination’s socket type.
