’12v’ is often ‘automotive’ devices- in which case they are very tolerant of fairly wide voltage swings (basically from 10.8v to 14.4v is commonly seen in an automobile) so they will happily take a 13v supply without issue, as long as it can supply the amps– in this case device pulls 3a, supply can give 7a, so that’s
Can I use a 12V power supply on a 13.5 V?
Yes. The 3A is the maximum current it can supply but it works fine delivering less current.
Can you use a 12V adapter for a 15V device?
Onus : Assuming the polarity is correct, plugging in a 12V input to a device requiring 15V won’t do any damage, however if you undervolt an amplifier, you may get clipping or other distortion.
Can I use a 12V DC power supply on a 9V DC?
If you have a 12V adapter, you might wonder whether you can use it to power your 9V guitar pedals. In most cases, you cannot use a 12V adapter to power a 9V guitar pedal. Using a 12V adapter on a pedal designed to only handle 9V can completely destroy it.
Can I use a 12V power supply on a 20V?
Can I charge a 12V lead battery with a 20V laptop adapter? – Quora. Yes, you can. But before that, you need to reduce the voltage to 13.5v and the current drawn from it is 3.4A(may vary from charger to charger). the current also not more than 1.5 A.
Can I use 12V for 14v?
Yes, you can. Just so long as the voltage really is 12v. Greater current capacity (which will not be used) is not a problem.
Can I use a 12V adapter for 10v?
No it’s not safe for the most of cases. There are two reasons. Since newer adapter has more terminal voltage therefore device is liable to draw more current and bad thing is that newer adapter is ready to provide more current.
Can I charge a 12V battery with a 15v charger?
If you use a 15 volt charger on a 12 volt battery it will work no matter what type of battery it is. But charging will be very fast, the battery will get hot, depending on the type it could get very hot or even explode! So if you do this, that is, use the 15 volt charger on the 12 volt battery.
Can I charge a 12V battery with a 14v charger?
Yes, it’s not optimum and probably doesn’t want to be done at very high current but yes 14VDC will charge a 12V lead acid battery reasonably well.
Is it OK to use higher voltage adapter?
Using a higher current charger (than the laptop is rated for) will not cause damage to the laptop; as stated earlier. The device will only draw what it requires from the power pack.
Can you use a 12V on a 9V device?
You can’t use a 12V adapter to power a 9V guitar pedal. A pedal that only handles 9V can be destroyed by using a 12V adapter. It’s possible for a power supply to ruin your pedal even if you get the voltage right.
Can I use a 12V power supply on a 9V motor?
Your motor will run fastly and then it may damage , because you can run 12v motor on 9v power but you can’t do the higher voltage input on lower VTG load , yes you can use series resistor to reduce 12 v VTG in near 9v , but also decrease current so you can check motor speed enough or not .
Can I use a 12V power supply on a 9V router?
However, the 9 Volt router cannot be run on the 12 Volt UPS. The 9 Volt router is meant to be run on 9 Volts and attempting to power it with the 12 Volt UPS will result in an overvoltage thus permanently damaging the router. No, it will not be possible to do that.
Can I use a 12V power supply on a 5V device?
The device will very likely burn out. In addition, depending on what the device is and the capacity of the 12V supply, connecting a 12V supply to a device rated 5V max could lead to a hazard – fire, explosion, etc.
Can I use a 12V power supply on a 19V?
Any device that was designed to run at 12V is likely to be fried by 19V. It might catch fire, even though it’s not very likely. You must have an equal or higher current rating in order to use an AC adapter.
Can I use a 12V power supply on a 19V monitor?
No, don’t use it! The PSU will supply 19V (“voltage source”) and will probably damage the load. There are PSUs that limit output current by dropping/regulating the output voltage (which then can be considered a “current source”), but as long as the required current isn’t constant that wouldn’t work either.
Can you use a 19v adapter on a 14v device?
No you should not be stressing the 14 volt devices with 19 volts. It will cause the 14 volt power converter to overheat.
Can I use 18V adapter for 12V?
18V would be risky, I would not try to plug a 12V device into an 18V battery. But if you happen to have 18V for whatever reason, you can always use a DC-DC converter. I use car-plug type adapters for all my 12v equipment because they have fuses in them.
Can I use a higher amp power supply?
Thus, as long as you replace your power supply with one capable of providing as much or more amps than the previous, you’ll be fine.
Can I use a 12V power supply on a 6V?
If the device has its own internal switching regulator, the voltage probably won’t be a problem, but since the 12V power supply has a lower maximum power (12V * 0.35A = 4.2W, and 6V * 1A = 6W), it may draw too much power and the power supply will be damaged.
How do you convert 12V to 9V?
To reduce a 12V circuit to 9V, place two resistors in series within the circuit. Find the difference between the two voltages (12V – 9V = 3V) to determine the total amount of resistance needed.
