AC vs DC Adapters
(AC) is an electric current that reverses direction in a circuit at regular intervals. This interval is measured in cycles per second or hertz. An AC adapter is used to convert one AC voltage into another AC voltage. (DC) is an electric current flowing in one direction only. A DC adapter differs from an AC adapter in that the DC adapter converts AC electricity into DC electricity. AC outlets and power sockets are very convenient and easy to use whereas DC charging units have a special outlet for more power production. AC chargers are mostly used in homes whereas DC chargers are mainly used in businesses.
