I just bought a Canon R6M2, and I'm wondering regarding the cable charging, can I use my Macbook Charger to charge the camera directly? It's a 61 W charger and the output is 20.3V - 3A or 15V - 3A or 9V - 3A or 2V - 3A. Would it damage the camera or the battery? Thanks!

Greetings,
Canon sells a very nice USB charger.
Canon PD-E1
I do use my MacBook charger occasionally. It's fine as long as long as it's the OEM charger and not a knock off. Note, do not connect cheap, unknown brand changers which are less than 45w, 9v 3A 🙂. The camera only takes what it needs.

I'm using my MacBook Pro USB C charger with my new R6 Mark II and haven't noticed any issues.
