Depending on what type of power supply it is there are a few options.
If the 2000mA rating means it'll supply up to 2000mA, you're already okay, although you should put a resistor in parallel with the device to safely dissipate extra power. You wouldn't want to exactly split the supply in case the device has current demand variations. It would probably be best to siphon off say, 750mA. Since it's 12 volts, from ohm's law: V = IR you'd want 12 = 750mA*R, or a 16 Ohm resistor. It would also have to handle the power output, where P = IV, so P = 12v*750mA = 9 W. This is a lot of power, but you could probably find such a resistor somewhere. (Try looking at sandstone power resistors)
However, if the supply is powering a sealed device (eg something you wouldn't open up and tamper with), I think you'd be better off just finding the appropriate power supply.
What else can I help you with?
Can you plug a 125V to 220V?
No, you cannot plug a device rated for 125V into a 220V outlet directly. Doing so may damage the device and pose a safety hazard. You would need a voltage converter or transformer to safely use the device with the higher voltage.
What is an example of an assistive device?
Assistive devices include:cartshoists and liftslift tables
Can a 127 volt device operate on 110 volt power?
Yes, a device rated for 127 volts should operate on 110 volt power without issues. The device may run slightly slower or with slightly reduced performance due to the lower voltage, but it should work safely.
Can you use a 220v outlet to plug a 110v electronic device into?
You cannot directly plug a 110v device into a 220v outlet. This can cause damage to the device or even create a safety hazard. You would need a voltage converter or transformer to safely convert the 220v outlet to the appropriate voltage for the 110v device.
What is the house is 220 outlet and you want to plug in a 110?
You cannot directly plug a 110V device into a 220V outlet as it can damage the device. You would need a voltage converter to step down the voltage from 220V to 110V to safely use the device with the outlet. It is important to match the voltage requirements of your device with the outlet to avoid damage.
You have media player that uses 5.6v and 2000ma you want to use in your car with a car adapter that has 2000ma with voltage settings of 3v-12v can you safely use the 6v setting or not?
No, it would be unsafe to use theÊ6-volt setting with an media player requiring 5.6 volts. The proper amount of voltage is needed to make sure that the battery is not overheated from too much electric current passing through it.
Where can you obtain device drivers safely?
From the hardware manufacturer's website.
Will a 12v car battery safely work for 9V 3.5A device?
No.
Which utility is used to properly remove a device that is hot swappable?
Safely Remove Hardware
What is loading rate?
The maximum amperage draw or load that the device or wire can safely carry.
To protect the data on a USB storage device while removing it double-click the icon in the notification area before removing the device?

How can a digital camera be safely removed from a computer?
If you are running Windows, you should be able to go to "My Computer", right click on the device, and select "Safely Remove." There is also an option on the taskbar (bottom right) that should look like a grey pendrive: click appropriate device and select "Safely Remove." If running on a Mac, you should be able to drag the device icon from the desktop to the trash (which should change to an eject symbol as you drag the icon)
How do you safely remove USB devices?
1) click on 'start' 2) click on 'my computer' 3) right click on your usb device's icon 4) click on 'safely remove'
What is an automotive lift?
A HydoMechanical or Pneumatic device that safely supports lifts and lowers vehicles for ease of access.
What is device managere?
Device manager is programme which is used to manage that all programs should run softly and safely so that user should not get stressed about computer programming
If your computer doesn't have a safely remove button is your USB devise still safely removed?
If there isn't a button, you can go to My Computer, right click the device, and in the menu, there should be an option to eject safely. If you remove it before you "safely remove" when you insert a pen drive you will the safety remove icon in your PC.
How do you connect hardware to a computer safely?
Unless it is a USB device or FireWire device or something similar, you should completely shut down the computer and the hardware, then plug the two together.
