Interchangeable Battery Chargers?

I just purchased a Sanyo VI-2300 from Sprint; several months ago I also had purchased a Sanyo PM-8200 from Sprint.

Both the 2300 and 8200 appear to have identical sets of ports: one called an “Accessories Connector,” the other a “Charger Jack.”

The 8200 unit came with a battery charger designed to be connected via the phone’s Charger Jack; the 2300’s battery charger is designed to be connected via the phone’s Accessories Connector.

In the past, I have had bad experience (mechanical failures) with battery chargers that connect to phones via slot-style ports similar to the Accessories Connectors on the 2300 and 8200. Consequently, I’d like to be able to use the battery charger that came with the 8200 to charge the 2300. However, the folks at Sprint recommend against interchanging battery chargers in general. Moreover, the specs for the two chargers differ slightly: The 8200’s charger is rated at 5.2 v, 800 mA; the 2300’s charger is rated at 5.1 v, 700 mA.

Does anyone know if the chargers for these two phones are interchangeable?

Yes they are compatable and interchangeable.

May I ask: How do you know?

I've had the pleasure of using different phones from Sanyo, most of them like Nokias are using the same chargers, yes some may differ slighty on the voltage but still will do the job on charging your phone adequately, if you look at a car charger for those models you will find that they also differ in voltage but are rated to be suitable for both models, you can also check different sites and you will see that they both can use the same chargers like at this one for example >>> http://www.daydeal.com/Thin_Profile_...DT-p-9319.html
any more doubts don't hesitate to ask, hope that helps....

That's right
