hello, i have a charger here that is 5.2 V and 1.35A, i think the 1.35A should be fine cuz the controller only taked 800, but i dont know if the 5.2V is fine, since the controler needs 5V, i think you know a lot so could you tell me please?

Usually you should always connect matching value charger with a device (phone, PS4 controller etc) but there is always a margin to stay under or cross the rated value, that margin is usually 4 till 5 percent. So I think connecting a 5.2 V charger (with 1.35 Amps ratings) should be safe but still there is a very small chance that it can cause some harm, I would suggest you to get a 5V charger, now a days they cost 1 till few euros (at least in Germany) Hope that helps.

Thanks for making this video. Many people SWEAR that any usb device that is plugged into ANY usb wall wart will magically automatically only pull in the amount of volts and amps necessary. That is true of cellphones, they won't pull more amps than they need, but not every usb charging device is suitable for charging every device. Your video clearly shows this, and I thank you for explaining things correctly.

Absolutely wonderful... Just to say that any device will ask for a specific amount of current ( Amps) ..So if the charger can give 10 amps at 5 volts , the device will take what it wants only.. Nicely explained vince

You are a frickin genius - I wish I had seen this video ages ago!

Slight nitpick, but the PS4's usb (or any kind of "power supply") does not *push out* amps, it provides up to a certain amount, and the device that receives it (in this case, the DS4) is actually in "control" of how much it *pulls* . Otherwise, you're spot on. Great video.

Excellent work. You cleared up a lot for me. Thanks. 👍👍👍

I charge my controls over night on theire stands (connected all night) or charge while use for 2 years now and my original control that came with ps4 is still perfect

Thank you so much this had helped me You earned a sub and like and notifs

Thank you. I actually learned something useful today.

thanks u help so much.

Remember voltage is supplied, current is drawn. The voltage is fixed (after its transformed from mains voltage), current is drawn depending on the resistance of the controller (which is fixed).

Just a note on the dual output chargers. As long as both output voltages are the same, which would be 5V, and the difference is the Ampere, just like my OnePlus Warp Charger rated at 5V=2A 10W and 5V=6A 30W, it's again safe to use them with no worries

@eightleggedanarchist

Жыл бұрын

@@Vamsi_Pokanati No, no, no. See, this was already explained in the video. Voltage (V) should never be exceeded. So if you have a charger that goes up to 20V for a device that takes in only 5V, avoid using them together. The current(A), however, can be exceeded without worries, as a device will only take what is needed.

Thank you very much now my controller charges a lot better.👍🏻

This video is very informative and relevant to me. Nice to stumble upon this channel

I swear I have learned more here than in my physics class

1) Usually 5V chargers tolerance is 4.8V - 5.2V it means you can use long cable if your charger has more than 5V out. For example my IPOD charger has 5.15V 2) Some USB cables do not support fast charge. So you can use them with fast charger. 3) As far as I know If data pins (2 and 3) shorted fast charging is activated and you will get 9V

My God thankyou! This was really helpful. It saved my ps4 and savings. Even lives of people.

Thx bud... I just got ps4 controller for my phone ... And yeah I used a fast charger for my other gampad controllers... But luckily some how some way your video showd up at the right time thx
