    The other day I noticed a device with an adapter that had wildly different amps and voltage but the Watts were the same and it fit so…

    I think it goes there…

      That is going to result either in a bang or nothing happening.

      You can use a power supply if:

      1. the plug fits

      2. the polarity is correct ( - and + are at the correct location)

      3. the voltage matches

      4. the current and wattage is the same or higher
