You probably could plug it into an extension cord to give you more length from the phone to the power outlet. A more permanent fix would be to cut the cord and splice in a section of cord. However, if exceed the design capacity of the transformer (big block you plug in), then you may loose power and not give your phone what it needs.
What else can I help you with?
Can you use 9V 500mA adapter for 9v 700mA 6.3VA device?
yes, if the other adapter is a va
Is it ok to use a 8V 650mA AC adapter for a cordless phone when the original adapter is supposed to be 9V 500mA When you plug it in with this adapter and it appears to be working?
It may work,but the phone device will be underpowered and it may not function to its full potential,like range,signal clarity. But on the other hand,your adapter will be overloaded and may heat up,leading to a short life. Rajiv Modi
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.
Is it ok to use a 4.5v 800mA AC adapter for a device when the original adapter is supposed to be 4.5V 500mA - will it damage the device?
Yes. As long as the voltage is the same which it is. The 800mA is the capacity that the transformer can produce safely without going into an overload state. Your original adapter was rated at 500mA which means that what ever device was plugged into it draws less that 500mA. You might notice that the new adapter is slightly physically larger. So you are safe to use the new adapter with the higher rating.
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 a 12V 2A adapter be used for a 12V 500mA device?
The adapter's voltage must match that of the device, and its current-rating must exceed that of the device. So the answer is yes.
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 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.
Can you use a 12VCD 500mA instead of a7.5V 800mA AC power adapter?
Yes you can. But it may damage your computers power supply.
Can you use a 1A adapter instead of a 500mA adapter?
Oh, dude, using a 1A adapter instead of a 500mA one is like using a sledgehammer to crack a nut. Technically, you can use it because it provides more current, but it might be overkill for the device and could potentially damage it. So, like, proceed with caution and maybe just stick to what the manufacturer recommends, you know?
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.
What does 500mA equal to?
500mA = 500 miliamper 1000mA = 1 amp so 500mA = .5 amps
