What happens if you plug more than one charger in the new MacBook Pro (2016)? Apple's controversial decision to convert all the ports on their 2016 MacBook Pro lineup to USB-C ports contributes to blur the difference between ports that supply power (such as a power adapters) and ports that can power external devices (such as USB keys, mice or other gadgets).



This made me think about the following scenario: you sit at a table where your laptop is plugged in on the right, and don't notice that it is plugged in, so you decide to charge it with a second nearby charger that is laying around (i.e. belonging to someone who lives with you and who recently sat at the same spot).

What would happen then? 

Would the computer charge twice as fast, would one of the chargers be dismissed by the system (which one?), or would it generate a surcharge that would destroy the computer?

I couldn't find anything about this online, but since I am always trying to force a USB in the MagSafe charger of my MacBook Air, I think that I could easily end up making this kind of mistake.

Note: My question asks what happens when two chargers are inserted into a MacBook Pro, but I am also wondering what would happend if 3, or 4 chargers were inserted. Although this scenario is unlikely to happen by mistake, it would constitute an obvious vulnerability to an exposed device, i.e. in a public space.
The system will choose the power source that provides the most power, and it will not draw power from the others.
Apple has released a support article (and another one) describing this:


Your MacBook Pro draws power from only one power supply, even if more
than one is attached—so using multiple power supplies will not speed
up charging.

If you connect multiple power supplies to your MacBook
Pro, the one that provides the most power will be used, regardless of
the order in which you connected them.

You should not connect any
power supply that exceeds 100W, as it might damage your Mac.
