Charging iPad Pro 10.5 with 20W adaptor

I am aware the iPad Pro 10.5 inch came with the 12W adaptor for charging. Is there any harm in using the new 20W adaptor for faster charging?

iPad Pro, iPadOS 14

No, not at all - in fact use of the 20W Power Adapter is potentially beneficial as you can charge your iPad at a daster rate.


Your iPad Pro supports USB PD (Power Delivery) Fast Charging. When used with the Apple 20W (or greater) USB-C Power Adapter, you iPad can charge at its maximum supported charging rate (18W - 1.5A @12V or 2.0A @9V).


You will also require a Lightning to USB-C cable.
