Question

About battery charger for a Samsung Galaxy Tab S2

by Oct 1, 2015 4:58AM PDT

Hi!

I've bought that battery charger: EP-TA12EBE - Travel Adapter 10W

Here are the specs: Input 100-240VAC 50-60Hz, Output 5.0VDC 2A.

I wonder if it is the right choice to charge safely my tablet.

Many thanks.

What are the specifications of the original charger that came with the tablet?

Apparently the same, in fact, I think they are the same model, only that the one who came with the tablet was white (EP - TA12EWE) and the one I have now is black (EP-TA12EBE...

I have doubts because on the rear of the package of the black ones says: Use only with Samsung mobiles... but, I want it to a tablet...

Maybe its a silly question, but I prefer to ask it before I did anything wrong.

While it looks fine to me, there are folk that worry in spite of all this. ME? I'd use this on that.

If that specs are the same it seems like a standard 10W USB charger. Can't go wrong. But if you still don't trust it, ask the sales person in the shop (or the customer service if it was a webshop). Or return it if they can't answer the question and buy something that says it's for phones and tablets. But i don't think it's necessary.
