I have power supply for Kindle with output 5V 0.85A. And I have Samsung Galaxy Pad one with output of 5V 2A.
My guess is that a device will consume as much current as it can but no more than max power supply current.
For example if Kindle device consumes 0.6A for charging its battery then it shouldnt create more than 0.6A current using Galaxy Pad power supply.
So my guess - if I charge Kindle with Galaxy Pad power supply it wont burn out. Is that right?
