If the device can be recharged it must have a rechargeable battery. Charging it at 2 amps instead of 3 amps would mean it takes 50% longer to charge.

How do you charge garmin nuvi 205?
To charge the nuvi 205, simply connect a Mini USB cable to the device. You can then plug the other end into your computer. If you have a USB to AC adapter you can use that as well. The unit also comes with a USB to 12v car adapter for use in your vehicle.
Can you use a 16 volt charger for 18.5 volt laptop to be more specific a 16V 4.5A AC adapter for a laptop requiring 18.5V 3.5A?
No, the charger will never get the battery up to a full charge. Usually chargers for equipment are about 1.5 volts higher that the device it is to charge.
Can you use a 3.5 amp charger to charge a 12 volt battery?
You can charge a 12 volt battery with a 6 AMP charger. The amount of amps put out by the charger is actually the rate which the power flows out from the charger, not the amount of volts it will charge. Volts and Amps are two different things. You can't charge up a 12 volt battery all the way, using a 6 volt charger. You can charge a 12 volt battery with a 12 volt charger rated at '6 amps'. It will charge the battery faster than a 2 amp charger will, but it will take longer than using a 12 amp charger. You probably don't want to use anything higher than a 12-16 amp charger for charging a 12 volt battery. Some chargers are equipped with a 60amp boost charge that is used for starting the vehicle, without having much of a charge in the battery. You DO NOT want to attempt charging a battery with it set to a 60amp boost charge. That is for starting vehicles only and could damage your battery. Keep in mind that the lower the amps are, that you use to charge the battery (1-2amps), will result in the charge lasting longer without recharging it, than if it was charged up at a higher setting (12-16amps).

Can you use a 5v 1A charger for a 5v 500mA device?
No. In general, a charger needs to be able to figure out when the battery has reached full charge, otherwise the charger can damage the battery by overcharging it. You need to use the specific charger required for the battery. And, if you are trying to power a non-battery device that requires 1A from a 5V 100mA source, you will not be able to maintain 5V, so it will not work there either.
How do you make a cell phone charge faster when its plugged in to the computer?
Unplug it from the computer and use a charger with higher amperage. For example if the standard charger uses a 5 V 1 Amp charger than you use a 5 V 2 Amp that will charge twice as fast but you may run the risk of overheating the cell phone. Find out from the phone manufacturer if the phone can sustain higher current.
