It will probably be fine, but there is always a danger if you exceed specs. If it were me, I would give it a try.

Is electricity wasted by leaving a disconnected 15 volt adapter plugged into an outlet?

Yes. You can tell if the adapter is warm then there is a waste of energy. It is the excitation of the transformer that is causing the heat loss.


Can you use 15 watt converter for 9 volt appliance?

It is not recommended to use a 15 watt converter for a 9 volt appliance as the voltage output may be too high, potentially damaging the appliance. It is best to use a converter that provides the correct voltage output for the appliance to ensure safe operation.


Can a 15 volt transformer replace a 12 volt transformer for LED aquarium light?

A 15-volt transformer can potentially replace a 12-volt transformer for an LED aquarium light, but it may not be advisable. LEDs are typically designed to operate at specific voltage levels, and using a higher voltage could lead to overheating, reduced lifespan, or even damage to the LEDs. It's best to use a transformer that matches the voltage rating specified by the LED manufacturer to ensure safe and optimal performance.


Can a 9 volt 1000 m a adapter replace a 9 volt 200 m a adapter- the polarity is the same-this is not bein used as a charger its being used to power a guitar effect pedal in place of 9volt battery?

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.


Can you replace a 13 amp 125 volt appliance cord with a 15 amp 125 volt cord?

Yes, no problem at all going to a larger ampacity of wire. Larger size wire yes, smaller size wire no.

Will a 30 volt 1.0A ac adapter burn out a 15 volt 1100mA appliance?

The answer to this question is yes. The 30 volt adapter will supply twice the voltage required by the 15 amp appliance. The other thing is that 1 amp is equal to 1000 mA. Even if the voltages were the same, the output current of 1000 mA when 1100 mA is needed, is not enough to supply the appliance.


Can you use a 15 volt dc adapter to run a 12 volt portable DVD player The adapter in question lists as a class 2 transformer if that makes any difference?

No. You should use the adapter specified for the DVD player. Using the wrong adapter can damage the DVD player and/or the adapter and/or cause a fire.

What is 15 percent of 1100?

15% of 1100 = 165


Can you use a 12 volt adapter on a 15 volt device?

No you shouldn't use a 14 volt 5 amp adapter on a 12 volt 5 amp device unless you know for sure that the 12 volt device has an internal voltage regulator that will lower the voltage to the correct voltage range the device was designed to use. As long as you always take care to check the output voltage with a voltmeter first, to be sure that the voltage from the adapter is regulated, meaning that it does not rise when a lower current in amps is drawn from it, you may be able to use an adapter that gives the right voltage at a higher amp output rating than the device actually takes. (For example, it may be possible to use a 12 volt 7 amp adapter for a 12 volt 5 amp device.)


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.

What is 15 percent of 1100.00?

15% of 110,000= 15% * 110000= 0.15 * 110000= 16,500


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.
