I got a portable radio w/ rechargeable battery that didn't come with the
recharging adapter. The radio states to use a 6V 200mA adapter. How
critical is the 200 mA value. I've other 6V adapters but all are
200mA.
Will it damage the battery or radio?
Thanks

You could easily to up to 9 volts and 300-350 mA without over charging.


Forgot to add-- make sure the polarity (i.e., is the center positive or
negative) matches and is correct or you'll fry it in a heartbeat....
