You can use it with no ill effect.


Excerpted from Identify your Mac power adapter - Apple Support,


"If your Mac uses USB-C to charge, you can charge your Mac laptop with any USB-C power adapter or display. You can safely use a power adapter or display with higher or lower wattage than the adapter included with your Mac."


If you use a power adapter with a lower power output than the one included with your Mac, it will not charge as quickly, but it will not damage anything.

Conversely, using power adapters with a higher power output will not damage anything either: Fast charge your MacBook Air or MacBook Pro - Apple Support
