No. You need to use the exact battery charger for the battery specified by the manufacturer, in order to achieve the correct charge cutoff point. In particular NiCad and similar batteries detect full charge by detecting the knee point in voltage per unit time given a specific charge current. Using the wrong charger could result in overcharge which will damage the battery.

No. You run the risk of damaging the device, with over voltage.

If the 9v adapter does not have enough current capability, the 1A load may bring the voltage down, but you then run the risk of burning out the 9v adapter.

No the voltage of the adapter is too high.

Can you use a 9V 600mA adapter on a 9V 400ma scanner?

You can use any 9v adapter as long as the output amperage is rated higher than the amperage rating of your appliance so yes a 600ma adapter can be used to power a 500ma or 400ma appliance


Can you use a 9v 600Ma adaptor to power a 9v 300Ma appliance?

I think you mean to ask if one can use a 9v 600mA adapter to power a 9v 300mA appliance. Yes, you can do that. A 9v 600mA adapter will deliver 9v at up to 600mA. A mA is one milli amp, or one thousandth of an amp. 300mA is 300 thousandth of an amp, 300/1000 or 0.3 amps. 600mA is 600 thousandth of an amp, 600/1000 or 0.6 amps, and is twice the current of 300mA.

yes this will work fine


Is it safe to use a 5v 1200ma router power adapter instead 9v 600ma adapter the original one for a longer period because everything works fine for now?

no .never


Can you use 6V DC 1000mA adapter in place of 6V DC 600mA adapter?

Yes you can. Given the fact you're talking about milliamps - the slight increase in amps will have no detrimental effect.


Can you use 12v 600ma instead of 12v 500ma?

Using a 12v 600ma source is allowing 12 volts and 600 amps of power. If the device requires a 12v 500ma source, the larger source is acceptable. Please note that it will only be drawing on 500ma of the available 600ma.


Can you use a 1A adapter instead of a 500mA adapter?

A one amp adapter is the same as a 1000 mA adapter. If your device requires 500 mA to operate then there is ample capacity in the adapter to operate a 500 mA device. Be sure to match the type of voltage AC or DC from the adapter to the driven device. Both have to be the same.

Can you use a 3.7v ac adapter for a digital camera that recommends a 4.3v adapter?

NO! It will fry your device. Use same V and possibly higher amp rated adapter.


Can you use a 3 amp adapter on 5 amp device?

NO


Can you use a device that requires 500mA on a 1000mA adapter?

Yes, no problem whatsoever as long as the voltages are the same. The adapter's capacity is 1000 mA and your device only requires 500 mA. The draw from the adapter is only at 50%.


Can you use a 12 VDC 2A adaptor on a 12 VDC 1A device?

Yes, there will be no problem with this adapter. The 1 amp device will only be drawing half of what the adapter can produce.
