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?
@waqasalimalik75087 жыл бұрын
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.

@@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.

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

I recent got 3 1 meter cables off Amazon same day for £4.99 and they are really nice quality, the plug fits well. I do also have a Huawei super charger plug for my phone that uses USB to USB C and that punches out 5v at 2A or 4.5 at 5A or 5v at 4.5A. It really packs a punch, it somtimes gives me a little tingle and I wouldn't use that plug with anything but my phone, people need to realize that it's not about what plug fits job done lol. The controller should only ask for the Power it needs but it's not worth the risk when if the only option is using a over rated plug then just plug it into the ps4 and rest mode it for a few hours

You need at least 800mA, the controller can only use 800mA. The charger should at least can output 800mA. The one that you should worry is the voltage output of the phone charger or whatever USB charger you are using. Not all charger made the same, some will output 5++ volts when not used and will drop down to close to 5 volts when in use. The culprit of battery destruction is the voltage, not the amperage.

Here’s what i’m getting at If a power adapter’s output or SEC isn’t at 5 V, or is but has a second “pair” like the one at 8:27 , you’ll pretty much burn out the controller If you want to use an adapter that works without any risk, make sure the output is at 5 V. If the adapter has something like 2 A, being over 800 mA (correct me if i’m wrong with that part), it’ll work just fine However, if you have an adapter that has lower than 800 mA, it’ll work but it will take longer to charge the controller This is how i’m seeing it in a much simpler way (if it doesn’t make sense i’m sorry this is the best way i could explain it) If i’m wrong on anything it would be much appreciated if i got corrected on what i got wrong

I tried using my Apple charging brick, but it was 5V and 1A, so in essence it was over powered and not charging my controller. What I ended up doing was charging it by plugging it into my MacBook pros USB port, and it worked fine. If it weren’t for this video, I wouldn’t have thought to check for the power specs, so this video helped quite a bit, thank you! 😀

My lil sis dropped my ps4 slim from 5 feets and it landed backwards it did get a lil deep scratch but it didn't get damage it happened because she was charging the controller from the ps4 and she pulled the controller and the ps4 fell down

the controller when is being used is not eating 800mA, it's using less than 200mA. So when you are using a 550mAh charger, and the cable is perfect it is still charging the battery, but at a lower rate. Usually the cable is not perfect, so the probability is that it's only charging about 50~100mAh over the consumption.

I'm probably wrong but. As long as it's 5.0v(five volts) and not lower than the amp requirement I should be fine?

Yeah. Don't use Samsung Quick Charge adapters tho.

Stubby Burrito Productions even if the Amp is lower your controller is still fine it’ll only take longer to charge

I wish I woulda seen this vid b4 I roasted my controller. Only 3 weeks old & its toast all from an hour w a Samsung charger. This advice is spot on. Great job. My 2 cents is don't use anything but the usb cable that came w ur ps4 or get a charging station & use only those 2 methods of charging. Now I'm headed to Wal-Mart to spend $60 yay

Zuhair S : With the XB1X you should take a wait & see approach as I don't think many games will bother to use that extra power and you will find most make games as PS4-Pro level and port it practically unchanged. Basically unless you got money to waste just wait couple years when PS5 most likey comes out or build a PC for true 4k.

03:31 800mAh is the *capacity,* not the charge rate. But they are related to each other. The PS4 controller charges at about 0.4 amps (400mA). It charges up fully in about 2 hours. So the math is nice and simple: 400mA per hour for 2 hours = 800 which is the total capacity. Charging rate varies. It goes fast at first and slows down significantly near the end. So the total time it takes to charge things isn't strict. That's just how batteries work. An example I heard was to imagine trying to stuff as many people as you can into a car. At first it's easy. But after 5 or so you CAN squeeze in more, like maybe 10, but it gets much harder. There's a lot less room to work with and you have to cram them into every last bit of space you can find. I've tested a dozen 5v chargers with various cables and none went higher than 0.4 amps. Even my "Adaptive fast charger" for my phone, which has the same rating as yours (5/9v). But that's probably because it has adaptive right on the label. If anyone wants to test this for themselves you can buy a USB voltage/amp meter for a mere 2-4 dollars on eBay.

If you have an Apple charger. You can use the Apple cube and use whatever android charger you’ll need to charge your ps4 controller. I searched it up and the iPhone charger cube is 5 Volts and 1,000 amps. So it is compatible with the ls4 controller.
