So i'm using this other one I think was from my ps3??? Anyways it's in the volt range but it says 7 amps and the block says 1 amp. Am i good? I don't electric
Any cable rated at a certain ampacity is ok for anything lower
Are you replacing just a cord that goes from the wall to the block or are you replacing a block, too?
If it's just a cord: you're fine.
If it's also a block: this is risky, make sure all the numbers match up and that it can do the right voltage + current for your device.
Just wall to block. Are you sure? Seemed too hot even after a minute, I was kidding. Maybe that's just because it's a bit warm tonight
The cord shouldn't provide any special kind of resistance assuming it's something like this: https://www.larsonelectronics.com/images/product/HigResPic1/105745.JPG
Yeah alright it isn't heating from charging while sleeping, I was bugging, glad you aren't yet another assassin
If it’s the IEC cable that goes from the wall to the block, you’re fine. Those are rated to a standard and are not dependent on the equipment it’s powering
Cables and power bricks and shit are rated on how much current in amps they can deliver and will draw respectively. If the block is gonna draw one amp and the cord can safely deliver seven then you’re fine.
Current is the flow of electricity, so if the numbers were reversed and the block was gonna try to draw seven amps through a one amp cord the cord would get really hot and burn itself in half.
