Excessive input power poses considerable dangers to the product, perhaps causing faults or even complete hardware destruction.

 

We recommend sticking with the AC adapter or looking for a quality accessory that fits the product specs.

If you use the original power supply, I don't see anything wrong that could happen. Just don't mix up the cables. I use an adapter like that and it works great.
