Title: Use Blackberry car charger to also charge iRiver H320?
Post by: Carrera2 on February 28, 2007, 09:21:41 PM

Well, I notice that the wall charger that accompanied the iRiver indicates 5V -- 2A, 350mA.

The iRiver also takes a charge from the USB port of the computer.

Any reason I couldn't use my Blackberry car charger (uses USB cable) that is marked 5V, 400mA max?

Are USB cables different as to polarity -- I would expect them to be standard.

Elsewhere on the net I have read of people frying their iRivers using incorrect chargers.  Don't wanna do that!

TIA if you can offer advice.
