    Beosound 3 Power Adaptor (Ampere Question)

    Reply Contact

    so my daughter recently managed to completely destroy the power adaptor for the beosound 3.  long story short, I have to buy a new one now.  The local B&O dealer is asking KRW 200,000 (roughly USD 200) which I think is highway robbery given that a local electronics shop sells a similar one for USD 15.  The problem is that the original is 15V 1A and the one at the local shop is 15V 1.5A.  I tried plugging it in and it has no problems charging the battery and playing.

    My question is will using the 1.5A vs. 1A adaptor damage the beosound 3 or it's battery?  I defer to the beoworlder's expert advice.~

    Should work well. The main difference is that the one at the local shop can deliver a higher amperage than you actually need.

    Agree with that, as the battery charges up the amount of amperage going in will taper off anyway.
