Product: HP ENVY x360 Convertible Laptop PC 13-bd0000 (172M7AV)

I just bought a new Envy 360 and it came with a 65W power adapter. My old Envy has been using a 45W adapter.  The voltages are the same, the barrel plug is the same (even the same color).  My question is, can I use the new adapter on my old Envy?  And conversely, can I use the old adapter on the new Envy? I realize that the charging time may be longer given the weaker 45W adapter, but will it hurt anything?

Given they are the SAME you can use 65W charger on 45W. You can't do another way around because 45W is too weak for 65W machine.
