    Ah, thanks. I didn't click on More to see more. https://www.anker.com/products/a2663?variant=41093880250518 for its 65W.
    That should be OK, right?

    If a 61W adapter was OK, a 65W adapter will be fine. The electronics in
    both ends will make sure the Mac gets just what it asks for.

    You can safely charge any device with a USB charge cable with any USB
    power adapter (assuming the power adapter isn't a cheap knockoff device
    that doesn't actually meet USB specifications, and isn't defective).

    The letter "U" in USB stands for "Universal". The USB specification is
    designed so that the USB power adapter will automatically negotiate the
    power level that is appropriate for the device being charged.

    This isn't something you need to worry about.
