Ensure the cord matches the device's specifications.
I believe this forum is suitable for your query. Most of my equipment had cords secured, but now I have two without and one that could fit either. I’m unsure how to compare voltage when the device varies its output. I think the cord should carry more current than the device itself. I understand polarity matters but the diagram is missing. Both list voltages between 100-240v, one at 12A and another at 2.5A. My cord is 13A, 125V. That falls within the range. Could it work with either model? Would any cord meeting the amperage and voltage requirements in that range be acceptable? Or is there more to consider?
It seems 100-240 refers to the voltage type available at your wall, with 110V typically not listed and 240V being standard elsewhere. Most devices display their power needs, like the HP laptop here which shows 19.5V at 2.31A. As long as your adapter can deliver at least 2.31A at that voltage and the plug fits, it should work. Avoid exceeding the voltage, but don’t worry about going over the amperage. Edit: I misunderstood—was it about power adapters or just the cords?
Absolutely, it still counts. Even though it's just a cord, not a brick or anything like that, it still matters. I've heard from people in person that these cords are universal, but I'm more confident in you than I am in them.
This setup works as long as the device matches the cord's rating. I'm confident the cable should suit either option. The power supply delivers 850 watts. Your PSU label should show 100v - 240v • 12A - 6A. That means 12A at the lowest input current and 6A at the highest. Even with 60% efficiency, it will only consume up to 1,420 watts under full load. You probably won<|pad|>'s choice will be limited. The cord rated for 13A @ 125v equals 1625 watts. It's unclear if all units match this spec, but here are some examples with the included power cord. If you examine the images closely, you'll likely spot the Aorus's power rating. https://www.rtings.com/monitor/reviews/g...orus-fv43u https://www.kitguru.net/components/power...su-review/
Universal connections are suitable for any socket needing one, commonly used in the USA. Other regions may require different plug ends. At 240 volts, wires can be thinner due to lower current for the same power. Cable color codes will also vary. You’ll notice them only when you break the cable open.
