Yes the voltage is close enough to work. What you have to be cautious about is the milliamp output of the adapter. Make sure that the output of the adapter is higher than the device that plugs into it.

Can a 5VDC 300 mA adapter be substituted for a 5VDC 500 mA?

Yes, it would actually be a little heftier power supply as to how much amperage it could draw without blowing out the internal fuse.


Can a 12V 800MA adapter be used in place of a 12V 500 Ma adapter?

Yes


Can a 12 VDC 500 mA adapter replace a 12 VDC 1200 mA adapter?

It depend on what the load of the device that plugs into it is. The mA rating is the maximum amount of amperage that the adapter can produce. The 500 mA adapter will produce about a half amp whereas the 1200 mA adapter outputs 1.2 amps. So one is about three times larger that the other. Check the device that you are trying to power for a mA load and that will tell you whether you can use it on the 500 mA adapter.


What type of adapter do you need to convert a HP PSC 500 printer to your laptop?

To convert an HP PSC 500 printer to a laptop, you need an adapter cable to convert the parallel port to USB.


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 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?


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 you use a 1200 amp adapter for 500 amp appliance?

Yes, the adaptor allows load currents of 1200 amps or less, and 500 amps is included in that. The voltage of a supply stays constant, the current that flows is determined by what power the appliance needs to run.


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.


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 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 an AC adaptor - 6v dc 1300 ma to replace AC adaptor - 6 v DC 800 ma?

Yes you can. All the 1300 mA rating means is that adaptor can supply devices up to 1300 mA. The old adaptor's limit was 800 mA. The new adapter has 500 mA more in reserve if it is ever needed.
