I got some speakers calls Creative Gigawork T20 I got from my sister but one of her 10 cats has chew up the cable on the power adapter so I just took a quick look on it rated 12v - 2.9 amper so I took one of my spare power adapter rated 12v - 2 amper and use it for a few weeks I was waiting for the heat shrink to arrive so I begin to repair the old one to use that one instead of the spare one so i found out its a AC adapter but the funny thing is i use DC adapter on it with no issues I was thinking that’s pretty weird so my question is can devices require AC can i use DC without taking damage on the devices I know it sounds pretty stupid but most of my spare ones is DC adapter I don’t want to see huge cloud of smoke or explosive Update (11/01/2016) sorry about that here’s the pictures of it
^its output AC testing with multimeter the other two make DC testing with multimeter
I also use this one for fun
@linkhunter “can devices require AC can i use DC without taking damage on the devices” no you cannot. Incidentally those device should not work. It is also not easy to find a 12V AC adapter. A lot of times you see people calling them AC adapter but they supply DC out voltage. Post a few images of both adapters with your question so we can see what you see. Use this guide for that
i look on http://support.creative.com/kb/ShowArtic… look like i can use both AC and DC on it GigaWorks T20 12V AC, 2.9 Amps - 15V DC 2.5 Amps
just wanna make sure before i purchase, the tip size of the power adaptor is it 5.5mm outer, 2.5mm inner?
