(...) Sure. The voltage would have to match (which it does) so no worries there. the current ought to be less to not cause any problems.

(...) Not at all! I'm quite upset about it, but I still recognize the futility. I suspect that many of My Fellow Americans feel the same. "Apathy" suggests that we don't care, when in fact we do (some, very strongly). I know you're semi-kidding (...) (22 years ago, 8-Oct-02, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)
