v1240 (Qtek) with C500 charger / battery query

[Guest martinlaidlaw]

To scared to try this without advice, but has anyone tried to charge their Vodafone v1240 (Qtek) with a C500 charger?

If it worked this would save me on buying more charging accessories!

Both the chargers have the same HTC Model number - ADP-5FH D made by Delta Electronics.

The only difference I can see is the C500's is 5.15V and the v1240's is labelled 5V, is this enough to kill the v1240?

What does the USB cable charge at, 5V?

Both batteries are the same 3.7VDC but with different Model numbers ST26A & ST26B (1050mAh and 1150mAh) which are apparently interchangable, as you can buy both as replacements.

Would be chuffed if someone has tried this, if not I won't risk breaking my new phone . . . cheers!

don't think you have to be scared at all.

Power in is standard USB 5V.

Plug it in :)

i do this all the time lol. all the later HTC smartphones (tornado, hurricane, typhoon) have interchangable batteries + chargers. the only exception being the new HTC breeze.

so as said above, plug it in :)
