[Ti] 15" AlBook power adapters

I don't have a new AlBook but while traveling last week I had 
forgotten to take a power adapter with me for my Ti 667 rev 2, so I 
bought a new 65W power adapter at an Apple Store. 2. It's marked 
24.5V @ 2.65A.

They told me this was compatible with all Ti books, though when I got 
home I saw that the adapters for my Ti 667 rev. 2 and an  earlier Ti 
667 rev. 1 are both 45 W.

Now I wonder-will the higher wattage do any damage?
