I see that the standard AC charger the computer comes with (non-USB-C) is rated at 150W, however this power rating is not very common for USB-C chargers (at least the few I've looked at) so I'm wondering if I can get away with using a slightly lower rating without sacrificing too much charging speed and/or damaging the computer [I have a Spectre x360 15-ch017nr].
Thanks!

Yes, its specs

which shows it use 150W AC adapter. Lower wattage rating chargers (USB-C or round connector) wont charge your machine when it is ON. They may charge your machine when off or overnight.
Regard.
