I realize this might be a stupid question but I couldn't figure it out on google, and I can't  afford new AirPods  should they get fried.

Yes. USB wall chargers are typically always 5v as that is the default usb voltage. Some also can output higher voltage to charge things faster, but that would be negotiated by the handshake between charger and thing being charged.

 

Look at the charger, it will have an output label on it. That will help you know what outputs it has.

I understand.  I can barely read what's on the charger and I wouldn't have known what to look for.

 

But thanks for the info. I just had to make sure. I can't risk breaking my AirPods even if it's unlikely that's Apple's own charger would damage it. 😅
