Charging EOS R10 with a super fast phone charger

[biamf]

Hello everyone,

Im travelling and I forgot my external wall charger. Is it safe for me to use my phone charger?

My camera is the EOS R10, and phone charger Samsung EP-T4510 (super fast charging).

Thank you!

Greetings, 

Samsung doesn't have full specs listed for this device.  45w, 5A.  But Volts = Watts / Amps.  

In general, a USB-C PD device should be at minimum 45w, 9v, 3A.  Note, the battery will not charge when the camera is powered on.  It could work if the pin out matches. 😉

Hi Rick,

Thanks for replying!

Sorry, I’m not too tech savy. Here’s a photo of my charger. 
I pluggled it to the camera and it’s showing a green light. Is this normal? Should it not be an orange light or something, that would turn green when fully charged?

Thanks again for your help, really appreciated!

I sometimes use a USB charger to charge my EOS R10. I use a more powerful charger, but all the same when the camera is charging the card access light will show green. When charging is complete the light will go off.

So I think you should be ok with your Samsung charger and the camera.
