If I be to take an adapter next to a complex output than specified would it work for my device?
If I were to buy an adapter near an output of 12V DC and a greater amperage, would my device work or would it be fried by the extra voltage and currrent?
Answers: Let me offer my credentials. BSEE, electronic arrange for 35 yrs.
A clock radio that draws 1400 ma of current? That's one heavy-duty clock radio! But never mind. That wasn't your question.
While 10v is an unconventional output, such supplies are available. Check with RNJ Electronics on the net as they have adjectives kinds of power supplies, at low prices, too. If not RNJ, later Hosfelt Electronics. And possibly Newark Electronics, though they're less potential.
Voltage regulation has be a requirement in electronics for more years than I've be around. So, using a 12v adapter will work out okay for you. The radio will regulate it down to the 10v that it needs. A 9v adapter a short time ago won't supply enough while underneath load. Don't use anything more than 12v, such as a 13.8v, since it will probably be beyond the voltage regulation ability of your radio.
Now for the current part, the 1400ma. That's what your radio is GOING to thieve, no matter what you try supplying it. If your adapter is rate less than 1400ma, afterwards your adapter will heat up and eventually die. If your adapter is rate higher than 1400ma, after it will be very content to supply solitary what your radio requires.
I did something like this masses years ago. The device worked fine until it fried out like you suspect. Just 'make happen it turns on does not mean it is working right.
