Can you use a 1300mA universal adapter for a 200mA device?
Yes, the maximum that the adapter can deliver is 1300 mA or 1.3 amps. The maximum that the device will draw is 200 mA or .2 of an amp.
Will a 6v 2.2a adapter damage a device that requires a 5v 2.5a adapter?
Yes it will
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 universal ac adapter set at 9v for a scanner that requires 10v?
It's not likely that you will be able to draw enough power for the 10v device, as you have probably found out by now.
Will a 5V 2.5A adapter damage a device that requires a 6V 2A adapter?
No, underpowering will not "power" the device, it will not run. You must get an adapter that is 6V and (2A or higher) will be ok as well.
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 500 ma power adapter on a device that requires 625 ma?
No, the capacity of the device is too large. The adapter will heat up and may even burn its internal windings open.
Is it ok to use a 5V 2a adapter on device that requires 4.5V DC 700 mA?
No
Can you use a 12v power adapter when device requires 6v?
No, twice the voltage applied to a device that only requires 6 volts will probably destroy the device. When a manufacturer of equipment states a required voltage for a device that is the voltage that must be used.
Will a 7.5 V 1500 mA power adapter work with your 75 V 1600 mA device?
No it will not. The adapter with an output voltage of 7.5 volts will not even come close to operating a device that requires a 75 volt supply. The best thing you can try is to find an adapter that will output the 75 volts that the device needs.
Will a 9v DC adapter damage a device that requires a 6v DC adapter?
Yes, the manufacturer specifies what the working voltage of a device will be and that voltage has to be adhered to.
What does polarity mean on a universal ac dc power adapter?
According to google if you have an automatic universal adapter, that adapter will automaticly find and adapt itself , the polarity ,voltage,amper , so that means an adapter can adapt polarities as well as voltage and current. A manual universal adapter on the other hand you have to adapt the polarity manually on the adapter itself , by checking what the device you wanna power has positive or negative, most electronic devices presently use positive . Check and see what voltage , amper and polarity a device needs. Positive : +--o)--Minus , Negative : Minus--o)--+ Or Positive: Minus--(o---+ , Negative : +---(o---Minus And adjust manually to what is required.
