Lower voltage, no, lower amps, yes. I will just take longer to charge the battery.
A: Simply by adding a series resistor from the battery charger. WHAT VALUE? find the current required and use it to IR drop the voltage
A cell phone heats up because of the activity inside the cell phone while it's charging. The chemical process inside the battery needs to be reversed in order to charge up the cell phone and electricity is moving through the phone as it charges. Most electronic devices, if not all, heat up while being charged.
Inside a 12 volt battery charger, one of the main components is a transformer used to lower the supply voltage to 14 VAC. The other main component is the diode bridge. It is a full wave bridge network which uses four diodes for voltage rectification. The open circuit output of the battery charger is about 13.8 VDC. So, no a battery charger is not a rectifier but it used the process of rectification in its operation.
So long as the voltage is the same and the amperage (milliamps in this case) is equal or less it shouldn't harm the device, but if the amperage is less than the standard charger it will take longer to charge. I've read on the web there are devices that will not charge with a different (higher or lower) amperage but I don't understand why.
A charger designed to run on 220 volts only will not operate on 110 volt supplies but single voltage chargers are rare. The majority of chargers will accept any AC voltage from around 100 volts up to 250 volts. To find out, take a look at the information panel on the charger. On the panel there will be a voltage rating as well as other data. The voltage is likely to say something like "Input - 100-250 VAC". As long as the voltage available is within the upper and lower limits, the charger should work. You will probably need an adaptor to plug it into the local mains outlets but once you have that, you should be set.
Electronsflow from areas of lower to higher voltage, while Current flow from areas higher to lower voltage.
Power supplies are normally units that adapt the incoming current from a "mains" source and convert it to a lower (regulated) voltage that can be used by an appliance. They are commonly found in computers, charger units, low voltage lighting systems etc.
No, you can not use a lower watt charger for a high watt or else the charge wont work
DDR3 uses lower voltage
The higher voltage source forces current backwards into the lower voltage source, which can damage it or even cause it to explode.
Unless otherwise stated, the value of an a.c. current or voltage is expressed in r.m.s. (root mean square) values which, for a sinusoidal waveform, is 0.707 times their peak value. The output of a voltage (or potential) transformer is no different, its measured voltage will be its r.m.s value which is lower than its peak value.
A: As soon as a DC voltage is applied the capacitor is a short or no voltage
