Is the 1600W converter I am using in the UK too much wattage for my laptop?

Is the 1600W converter I am using in the UK too much wattage for my laptop?
I am traveling from the US to the UK. I have a converter that switches between 50W and 1600W. My laptop will not work on 50W but the converter says that choosing the wrong one could damage the appliance. The adapter says 19.5 V, 100-240V, 1.5A, and 50-60 Hz.

Answer 1 :
You don't need ANY converter. Your adapter (100-240V) will work just fine in the UK. You just need a plug adaptor so the US plug can fit in the UK outlet.
