Hi all,
I have a Wahl 9880L trimmer. My charger has gone missing and I cant find one cheaper than $25. So I bought a USB cord that has the same DC jack as the charger. Only thing is, the battery is a 4.2 Li-ion and the charger is a 1A charger. I understand a computer puts out 5v and 500mAh?
From my limited understanding, the lower current is ok, but the higher voltage is not?
To deal with this, I came across the idea of using an electronic cigarette charger which is a 4.2v 500 mAh charger and I would connect the DC jack on the end instead of the bit that the cigarette would connect to. So my question is - Would this be fine?
Here is the link for the charger and here is the link to the cigarette charger.
Thanks
