Last night I broke the charger for my phone, so I've been using my car charger in the mean time until I get a new one. It's not too big of a deal or anything, but it's really inconvenient so I started looking for a spare charger with the same connector tip.
To my luck (or not) I found one with the exact same tip, exact same input voltage and amp, same output voltage, but a slightly lower output amp.
My old charger's output is 5V 1A, while the spare one I found is 5V 800mA
Would it be okay to use the spare charger? Does that lower 200mA difference matter? What if I only use the spare charger when the phone is not in use, theoretically it won't need to draw out all 1000mA?
I've been doing a little research on google but the answers that came out were inconsistent and I don't want to fry my phone.
Thanks guys.
