Exclamation power adapter warning?

It supposed that the power adapter of the X51v is compatible with X30 or vise versa.

I connected the adapter to a X30 (via the travel adapter, not the usb base), the power light of the X30 blinked for a 1/2 sec then stopped.

It seems that I had a kind of over voltage protection, the charger stopped to provide voltage. Then, I disconnected/re-connected the charger from the mains and this seems to make the charger work again..


After this, I managed to connect the power adapter of the X30 to X51v, this work very well.

As i see the 2 adapters are about the same .

same voltage/amperes/rating. THE only differences are :

-----------------------------------------------------------------
charger | cable | rev. | Efficiency level | cc: |
-----------------------------------------------------------------
X30 |thin | A01 | none | C |
X51v |thick |A03 | IV | P |
-----------------------------------------------------------------

both are ADP-13CB A (i suppose its the model nr?)


so.. Is there something wrong with the X51v adapter? I mean if it is provide more voltage than normal , the X30 cannot tolerate it but the X51v (and I don't know if its bad for the X51v!)


i measure both the chargers via a reliable multimeter :

x30 adpter: 5.59vdc
x51v apater: 5.57vdc
