To save some money and more certainly space I decided to buy a USB-DS lead so I didn't have another bulky charger and I could plug it in to charge on any USB socket. So I've plugged it in to the laptop and its charging but it's draining when I'm playing on it, it's not going dead but keep reminding me to plug in the charger.
It's not a massive problem, however I was hoping to be able to play and charge as battery life isn't that great.
My second and more regular charging option would be to use the USB cable and plug it in to my iPad2 charger block. Only the voltages don't match, so was wondering is it ok to use this and does anyone else do it?
Info on the USB ipad charger block:
10w USB power adapter
Input 100-240v~ 0.45A (0.45A) 50-60Hz Output 5.1 --- 2.1A
Then on the plug between the pins:
2.5A 250v~
The 3DS XL has on its back:
4.6V --- 4.1W
4.6V --- 900mA
Thanks
