Help with power adapter!!
Alright so here I am in Europe. My laptop charger works fine, my camera power adapter works fine... they all go from 110-250V, which the higher is used in Europe.
EXCEPT- My rechargable shaver does not work here! It is strictly 110V.
So I need a way to power this baby up, or it is beard city for me for 6 months.
Looking on the wall wart charger for the shaver, it outputs 3.6V and 1.2 milliamps. Here in Turku Finland I went to an electronics store and found a variety of adapters-transformers. The problem is, that I cannot find exactly a 3.6v 1.2MA output from them. I can get CLOSE, say 3V at 1.5MA or else 4V at something like .5MA, etc. But not exactly.
I plan on buying a local adapter, and just cutting the cord from my North American power adapter and hooking it on to the new one so it will connect to my shaver.
But, how close do I have to get in terms of actual specs, can I go over/under voltage? What about ma? Will something relatively close work for me? Is it better to be under or over?
Thanks
