FAQ

Here are some of the Targus frequently asked questions

Can I use a power adapter from one electronic device for another with a similar voltage and plug size?

In most cases, you can use a power adapter from one device for another as long as the voltage, plug size, and polarity match. However, it’s essential to check the current (Amperage) rating as well. An adapter with a lower current rating might not provide enough power, while one with a higher rating could damage your device.

What’s the difference between a power adapter and a power converter?

A power adapter simply changes the plug shape or size to fit a specific socket, while a power converter transforms the voltage of the electricity. Adapters are used for devices that support the local voltage, while converters are necessary when you’re travelling to a region with different voltage standards.

Is it safe to use third-party or generic power adapters for my devices?

While we cannot speak for other brands, it's safe to use Targus power adapters if they meet the voltage and current requirements of your device.

Can a power adapter charge my device faster if it has a higher wattage rating than necessary?

A higher-wattage power adapter can potentially charge your device faster, but that's not always the case. The device also needs to support the higher wattage for faster charging. Using an adapter with significantly higher wattage than needed won’t necessarily speed up charging and could be inefficient.

Can I use a USB-C power adapter with a device that has a micro-USB port with an appropriate cable?

Yes, you can use a USB-C power adapter with a device that has a micro-USB port as long as you use the appropriate cable with the necessary connectors. However, the device might not take advantage of the full capabilities of the USB-C standard, such as faster charging, data transfer, or video output.
