Some 9 V adapters rated for 1000 mA will provide 9 V at 1000 mA. If you use it on a 200mA device the voltage may go up to 10-15 V and if that device can not handle the higher voltage, it it could burn out. Better adapters will only put out 9 V exactly and have no problem. Be careful of revere polarity where the positive on one is the negative pin for the other adapter.

Will a 9V 300 mA charger work as a 9V 300 mA adapter for a Vtech Vsmile game as I bought a charger by mistake?

Sure thing. The voltage is correct, and it has enough capacity. Make sure that you get the negative and positive polarity right if you are putting your own connector on. Usually they have a graphic, showing that negative is in the center of the plug, and positive on the outer etc.


Does it do any harm to connect a battery charger the wrong way around?

Is a AC adapter the same as a charger?

An ac adapter converts ac current into dc current through a rectifier, and a battery charger outputs dc current at an adjustable powerful charging rate and also converts ac current to dc current to charge different sizes of batteries.


How do you place charging leads to two 6 volt deep cycle batteries that are in series?

If the charger is a 12 volt DC machine, connect the leads to the two battery terminals that the load is taken from. Take care to note the polarity of the leads to the polarity of the battery terminals. There will be a short jumper cable between the two six volt batteries. The charger leads go on the opposite terminals of the two batteries that the jumper is connected to.


Can you recharge a 3V battery with 12V charger?

It is not recommended to recharge a 3V battery with a 12V charger as this may damage the battery. The voltage of the charger should match the voltage of the battery to avoid overcharging and potential safety hazards. It is best to use a charger specifically designed for the 3V battery.
