Hello there, I have Dell Inspiron n5110 i7-2670qm with HD 3000 @650 mhz and disabled Nvidia GT 525m and MacOS Sierra installed with Macbook Pro 8,1 smbios.

I noticed that the "Power" section in "System Information" shows that the AC Charger wattage is 45W but i'm actually using a 130W AC Adapter.

Is this normal? and Could changing smbios to 8,2 or 8,3 fix this lower wattage and maybe affect the performance of my hack?

Ignore it. Mine shows the exact same AC adapter serial number as yours and I'm using an HP laptop. I don't know if it's possible to change this. The nice thing is that my laptop came with a 45W charger so at least that part is correct for me. Are you using ACPIBatteryManager.kext?
