Interchanging battery and chargers
Good day
I am currently using a 90W charger for my 56Wh battery. Is it okay to use the 130W charger for this battery? Similarly, can I use a 90W charger for charging an 86Wh battery? Thanks.

It's always OK to substitute a higher wattage adapter for a lower one if the plug sizes match (notebook end).
It's not OK to substitute a 90W adapter for a 130 W though. The adapter will be overstressed, and chances are any XPS that shipped with a 130W adapter has a discrete GPU -- it won't run at full speed with a 90W adapter.
