I made the mistake of buying the 87 watt unit for NZ$120 (wow!), opening the box and finding in fine grey print on the adapter a confusing bunch of different amperage ratings at voltages, but at 5 volts the unit delivers 5 volts at 3 amps (i.e., 3000 mA or milliamps). It says this nowhere on the box; I had to unpack the unit and read the 0.8mm light grey text, then return it to the store.

To give you an idea of how far this is off from that advertised 87 watt promise, delivering 87 watts at 5 volts it should be delivering __17.4 amps__. Apple's unit is clearly using 87 watts to deliver 15 watts (3 amps at 5 volts) of power.
