    I haven,t used my tablet for 5 months,
    I found out my tablet charger is in my sisters house ,60 miles away.
    i ,ll collect it in 3 days.
    its a lenova yoga tablet 10 inch,
    the label on the back says input 5.2 volts.
    Can i use my phone charger 5volts output to charge it.
    or can i just plug it into my pc using a usb to micro usb cable.
    Is it safe to charge it from the pc, or the phone charger.

    The tablet is a year old ,i don,t want to risk damaging it ,
    unless i,m sure it is safe to charge it from the pc or phone charger .

    From doing a google search , the charger is rated 5.2 volt out 2 Amps


    quote ; re device charging
    if the device needs anything more than that it needs to negotiate it with the port, the standard 2.0 port can handle 500 mA .

    My pc is dual core pentium 4 hp.
    i have a laptop dual core 64 bit cpu 4gig ram.

    I have a charging bank unit ,it charges my phone,
    label on it says Output = 5v 1Amp ,
    so if it works on tablets it would provide faster charging than a pc 500ma port.
