Random Wallcharger?

I have this charger(Ac adapter) sitting here, I dont know with what it came but it fits in the M6 and it seems to work.

It says:
Imput: 100-240V ~ 0.2A 50-60Hz
Output: 5V - 1A LPS

Is this charger suitable for the M6 or is there a chance it might cause damage?

I use my Motorola-phone-charger, and it works fine for me!

hey haha

tja het kan wel maar is het ook goed?
Ik wil namelijk niet mijn speler beschadigen...


for those of you who don't speak Dutch:
well... I know its possible but is it ok to do?
I don't want to run the risk of damaging my player

My Motorola charger is being sold as a 'Meizu Charger' at mmport.nl or meizu.nl.

I don't know if this says anything, but I personally don't think it does any damage!

En ze houden hier niet van Nederlands. -_-'

I am looking for a charger aswell.

I just PMed JoB and asked the same question, but as I can see he wants to know it himself .

btw, I am dutch aswell , so it would be nice if we can find something that works for us, and is not that expensive. Of course u can buy the meizu charger + an adapter so u can plug it in here. But those adapters aren't really that cheap either I think.

wel... standard USB chargers WILL work... I know that

The thing is this charger i found here is a different one..
just want to be sure whether that's ok too...

I think it is as it seems to work perfectly on my Meizu players

Wow so is your wall charger for your phone, a USB head? So it connects to the Meizu? Cool.

Look at the back of the Meizu I think it tells you details about voltage power, and look inside the user manual.

On the back of my TP it says 5V --- 400mA (largest).

I don't really know what that means, but according to my maths, your charger is too strong (btw I don't know).

Myth confirmed.

lol .. guess what ?
I'm using the charger of my nano ...
OK it's a shame i had an iPod, but the charger is useful

yep you will need that kinda things. You can prolly just buy any of these usb-->volt thingies, for every MP3 player and use them for your meizu.

Yeah any sortof 5 volt usb charger will work great.
I built my own so I can charge my camera, meizu and phone all at the same time =D

OK, so that does include Apple's OEM charger?

Any USB wall charger with a 5V output will work fine for the M6. The Li-ion battery cannot be overcharged, and most chargers will stop charging when the battery is full anyway.

i think there was already a previous post about this usb charger thing.

in any case, i use my asus phone's usb charger with my m6 and it's still working so... :D

cool... thanks for the info guys!

in that case i got myself a wallcharger and i didn't even know it

btw...if any 5V charger with mini usb connection works that means the ones for the Nintendo DS should work too?
They are just like 5 euros while the ones for the Ipod are 20 or 30 euros

Another question: The procedure for plugging in M6 to USB port on computer is to turn on the M6 first. If, for example, one is using the standard iPod charger into the wall instead to charge M6, would one also need to switch on or just plug in with unit off?

just plug it in and it will charge, no need to turn it on
same goes for connecting it to the computer btw

If the player is turned off and connected to PC through USB it will charge
If its turned on and connected to PC it will be recognized as external drive and you can access your files

Well, I've never liked how M6 (and all DAPs) seem to get excessively hot when charged via the computer's USB port. Whenever I charge any of my iPods using the iPod wall charger I observe no such result. Maybe it's not harmful, but I just don't consider it a good thing. Just ignorance on my part I guess.

Anyway, ready to plug miniplayer into the wall using Apple iPod OEM charger, so here goes...

hmm thats odd.. my M6 doesnt seem to heat up much at all while charging through USB or any other way...

Most MP3 players will heat up with the charging via usb or wall, because it is the transfer of electricity. However, it is more noticeable in the M6 due to its aluminum backing. Metal conducts heat well, and so the M6 will heat up.

A tip when charging via USB or wall: Don't keep it inside the protective pouch, it will heat up even more! Best to leave it out on its own. (with it lying on the pouch of course :P)
