Yes.
(For any pairing of power supply and device, as long as the voltages are a match (in your case: 9v), and the output (in amps or milliamps (A or mA) of the power supply IS EQUAL TO OR GREATER THAN the current required by the device (in your case 1300mA or higher) then you will be fine.
Yes it is suitable:
The OUTPUT VOLTAGE (5v, 9v, 12v, etc) of a power supply MUST BE EQUIVALENT to the required voltage of the device to which it is to be connected, whereas
the output CURRENT (500mA, 1A, 1500mA, 2A... etc) offered by the power supply MUST BE AT LEAST EQUAL TO OR GREATER THAN the current required by the device to which it is to be connected.
(in your case, for example, as long as the power supply is rated at 9v, you could use one that has a rating of 1300mA, 1400mA, 1500mA, 1A...and so-on, without any damage to either device)

Can you use 9V 500mA adapter for 9v 700mA 6.3VA device?
yes, if the other adapter is a va
Will 9v 1100mA power adapter work with your 9v 500mA device?
Yes, a 9v 1100mA power adapter work with your 9v 500mA device. The mA number is the maximum amount of amperage that the adapter will produce without overloading itself. At 500 mA the adapter will only be working at half load.
Can any 9v 500mA adapter replace any other 9v 500mA adapter?
No. There is a 50/50 chance it will work. Check the polarity on the label. Some adapters have the positive on the outside sleeve of the plug, others use the center portion. The device may be labeled, or use Google to locate the correct adapter for it. If you use a plug with the wrong polarity it might fry your device.
What will happen if use a 12v 400ma instead of 12v 500ma?
i am not sure, BUT according to the answer in this post:Can_you_use_a_9V_600mA_adapter_on_a_9V_400ma_scanneryou need an adaptor of 9v and AT LEAST 500mA (assuming that the appliance draws 500mA)
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 300mA adapter on a 9v 200mA device?
No. The adaptor will overheat.
Can you use a 9V 500mA for a 9V 800mA?
Using an undersized power supply is not a good idea. The device drawing 850 mA being connected to a 800 mA source will work but the adapter will get warm to hot over a period of time. This overloading of the power supply will eventually destroy the adapter.
Can a 9V 2A replace a power adaptor of 9V 1500mA?
Yes a device will only draw the amount of current it needs if the voltage is the same it will draw the same amount of current. Since your going to a power suply with a larger max current you should be fine..just don't step up the voltage.
Can you use a 9v dc 500mA AC adaptor for a 9v 35mA guitar wah wah pedal?
Yes you can, as the pedal draws only 35 mA, which is less than the maximum current the supply is capable of delivering.
For a device requiring DC 6V 1000mA will a DC adapter output 9V 1000mA also work for this device?
A device which requires 1000mA at 9 volts in order to operate will not work from an output of 500mA. This output is only half the power requirement of the device.
Can a 12v dc 500mA adapter be substituted for a 12v dc 200mA ac adapter?
No.If it is AC output, it will blow out the power circuits of the DC device.If it is DC output, it doesn't have enough current capacity for the load of the DC device.If you want to power a DC device with a wall wart, make sure the wart is:DC outputCorrect polarity (some have reversible polarity)Exact same voltage as the deviceGreater than or equal to current rating of the device
Can you use a 9v dc 200mA ac adaptor in place of a 500mA?
Yes. The current rating should be the same or greater than the original. This means the adapter can supply up to 500mA; In your case it only needs to supply 200mA, so it is more than up to the job.
