3rd party AC adapter

nikcs123 · 01-01-2007, 09:03 PM

I found an old iPod USB to AC adapter lying around. On the back of zune it says: input 5V - 1.4A. On the adapter, it says: output 5V - 1000mA(which is 1amp). So is this suitable for use with my zune?

A normal USB port is only 550mA, so yes that will be fine.

Im pretty sure that the back of the Zune says up to 1.4A it will charge from, and it needs at least 550mA to initiate a charge.
However, whether it will work is still a bit iffy, some adapters work... some don't. I started talking about it here... http://www.zuneboards.com/component/...8/topic,1132.0
