Charging Buds with 25W brick

[nubold]

Is it ok to use the 25W charger from my Note 10+ to charge my Galaxy Buds?

Is there any reason not to do so? Could I damage the Buds or their case using the 25W fast charger?

Yup, the brick is designed to adjust the output to whatever the receiving end supports (and if it can't determine what that is it defaults to standard 2A charging). The buds will still take three years to charge (OK, that was an exaggeration, but they take too goddamn long!).

Use your note10+ reverse wireless charging...

And take 6 years!

I do sometimes.

I just wanted to know if I could use the 25W charger to charge the Buds directly.

I think the OP was asking if it was safe to do this, not just will the N10+ charger physically work, i.e. if over time it might damage the batteries in the buds.

The buds control the rate of charge so it makes no difference

Thanks Mike! I've been wondering about this too, specifically if I can use my USB-C computer charger to charge phone, tablet, and earphones. I was afraid i might damage the batteries over time.

When it comes to power, the device using the electricity is the one that determines current. USB chargers are adaptable and the conforming standards require backwards compatibility to prevent those sorts of problems.

it is helpful to think of it as the buds are pulling power from the charger, not that the charger is pushing power into it. so it doesn't matter, they can't overcharge. if you wanna use your 65w laptop charger, go for it.

another example is the outlet in your house. the same socket that can power your 1000 watt subwoofer can also power your 1 watt nightlight.
