Yes. The current rating listed is the _maximum_ current that the power supply can provide without a drop in voltage.

Is it a problem to use an adaptor with an output of 4.74 amps and 19 volts when the Laptop's input is 3.42 amps and 19 volts?

No problem whatsoever. As long as Voltage is the same and the supply Amps is greater than the laptop's Amps, all will be well. The Voltage will be supplied no matter what your laptop needs, creating an overload if the supply is greater than the demand. The Amperage will vary automatically depending on your laptop's need. There would be a problem if you used a 19V 2A power supply.


How do you measure the size of a power adapter?

The size of a power adapter is typically measured by its dimensions in millimeters or inches. This includes the length, width, and height of the adapter. Additionally, the power rating in volts and amps is also an important factor when considering the size of a power adapter.


How many volts it takes to cause a current of 1.95 amps to exist in a 200 watt lamp?

The formula to calculate the relationship between amps, volts and watts is Volts X Amps = Watts or Volts = Watts / Amps or Amps = Watts / Volts therefore; 200 Watts divided by 1.95 Amps is 102.5641 Volts.


What does 1500 watts equal in amps at 120 volts?

To convert watts to amps at 120 volts, use the formula: Amps = Watts / Volts. For 1500 watts at 120 volts, the calculation would be: 1500 watts / 120 volts = 12.5 amps.


How many amp is 115 volts?

To determine how many amps are in 115 volts, you need to know the power (in watts) being used. The relationship between volts, amps, and watts is given by the formula: Watts = Volts × Amps. Therefore, to find the amps, you can rearrange the formula: Amps = Watts / Volts. For example, if you have a device that uses 1150 watts, you would have 10 amps at 115 volts (1150 watts ÷ 115 volts = 10 amps).

Can you replace an AC Adapter of 19.5 V and 3.34 A with a 19.5 V and 4.62 A?

It sounds like you are referring to a universal adapter. A universal ac adaptor has several tips, which adjust the voltage and amperage, and the higher the voltage, the lower the amperage. Therefore, if your adapter is 4.3 amps at 15 volts, it will be significantly lower amperage at 19 volts.


Can a device requiring 12 volts and 3 amps run with an adapter providing 12 volts and 2 amps?

No. Your power supply must be able to supply rated voltage (12 volts) and rated current (3 amps).


Is it a problem to use an adaptor with an output of 3.42 amps and 19 volts when the Laptop's input is 4.74 amps and 19 volts?

It could be a problem when the laptop asks for 4.74 amps and the adaptor can't do that without heating up too much.


What is the difference between a 9v 300mA Adapter and a 12v 300mA Adapter?

difference is 2.7 amperes in numbers will be 12 volts 3 amps and the other will be 12 volts .3 amps


High voltage low amp adaptor you have the original power adapter for your laptop The output rating for the ac adapter is 19v 3.42A you have a replacement that has a 30v and 2.5ACan you use it?

No. Two reasons.... It is a much higher voltage (30V) and will destroy your laptop. Even if the Volts were correct (19), the Amps aren't sufficient... The original can output much more than the replacement. If the laptop needs 3.42A (which it likely does) a 2.5A just isn't going to have enough umph to power it.


What power adapter do you need to use for 7.2 watt 12 volt led lighting unit?

For a 7.2-watt, 12-volt LED lighting unit, you need a power adapter that provides 12 volts and at least 0.6 amps (since 7.2 watts divided by 12 volts equals 0.6 amps). It's advisable to choose an adapter with a slightly higher current rating, such as 1 amp, to ensure proper operation and avoid overloading the adapter. Make sure the adapter has the correct connector type and polarity to match your LED lighting unit.

If voltage is 12 volts and ohms is 0.5 how many amps in circuit?

Ohm's law: Volts = Amps * Ohms, or Amps = Volts / Ohms 12 volts / 0.5 ohms = 24 amps


Is it safe to use a 125volt 15a converter for 220 volt devices in a 120 volt country?

Yes, this can be done. The adapter will handle at 120 volts x 15 amps = 1800 watts. The adapter is just a step up transformer. The maximum 220 volt device that can be connected can only have an amperage rating of 8 amps at 220 volts.
