I have a situation where the only proprietary charging device I have for 12 volt cellphone is a UK unit rated at 220v 50 cycle input.
I need to charge the phone here in Canada, and have obtained the necessary outlet adaptor to plug the UK square pin plug in to a standard 110volt 60cycle north american wallsocket. The charging bar on the phone indicates that it is accepting a charge. Am I doing any harm by attempting to charge the device at half the rated input requirement, or am I simply slowing down the rate of charge?
