battery charging - What affect does charger wattage have on lifetime of LiIon batteries?



This questiuon is generic to LiIon and LiPo batteries but a Mac is used as an example.


A Mac 'laptop' is provided with a 85 Watt charger.
It is possible to charge it with 45 Watt charger that was supplied with a different Mac 'laptop'.


The 85 Watt charger charges the battery from 0% to 100% faster than the 45 Watt counterpart.


But, does using a higher power (wattage) charger impair general battery life in the long run?
