The baterry will charge faster i think.Not sure if will damage it anyway.I may be wrong tho

I am a...newb

1, it won't work

2, it shorts something

3, it overloads something

4, that something catches on fire and you proceed to number one

The only main concern would be breaking/shortening the lifespan of the battery. But most laptops now won't even charge the battery off of the wrong wattage power brick and they will just run off of the power(not the battery) itself.

Back in college, we all used every power supply we could grab, never caused an issue.

You will burn & die

 

 

Well on a serious note:

The impact depends upon your luck , some guys get away with it some don't

Hard drive may damage due to voltage fluctuation , same goes for GPUchip CPU can handle it i believe but it's quite a bad practice to do something like this

The damn thing will catch on fire for the worse

fry memory.. etc..

Are the polarities compatible?

 

I had a friend who managed to fry a laptop by doing that... Voltages and current are the same... Polarity wasn't... Imagine 19V, 3.42A coursing backwards through your computer...

:blink: Oh dear, I've done some terrible things to one laptop in particular but never that..

 

I need to try it.

the  amp rating on power bricks is just how much it can supply, the important figure for a PSU like that is the voltage. So long as the voltage is right and the amps are at least the same if not higher then you should be right.

 

 

Assuming polarity correct of course.

That is not how technology works. Example : If a phone needs a 50w charger and takes 2 hours to charge fully, giving it a 500w charger will not make it charge faster, just explode.

you may release the magical blue smoke... but really it would just mess up the battery or blow a safety fuse somewhere. That said I have used supplies that were close but not exact and been fine but you shouldn't really.
