Is this wall charger compatible?

MP3 players Sansa Fuze

I have a wall charger that accepts a USB plug. It is originally used with a USB mini cable, but it can accept any cord that has a USB on it. The output is 5V, do you think it is okay to use this to charge a Fuze? It’s rated at 1A, and if the Fuze charges through USB, then it’s only pulling 500mA at most. Thanks.

Any charger with a USB socket on it is safe to use with the Fuze, as long as you use the cable that came with the Fuze. A charger that puts out one amp should charge the Fuze quite fast.

Awesome, thanks for the info. Sansa Fuze should only pull the amount of current it needs, hopefully not one ampere, because when charging from USB, it gets pretty warm already =/

I should add though that a USB wall charger I have that is 500 ma did charge my Fuze completely, however after quite a long period of time the Fuze indicated it was still charging. I then connected the Fuze to my Tekkeon mp1550 which puts out 800 ma, and immediately the Fuze indicated it was fully charged! If a USB wall charger is too low in ma output though(I don’t know what the cutoff is) then the Fuze might not charge.
