How to identify correct charger for AirCard 770S

Recently we were organizing power cords and I wound up looking at two NetGear chargers, both of which fit the AirCard 770S and now I don't know which is which. I looked at specs on the website but the chargers are not identified in any way.

 

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

 

Thanks

    Hello Cathyr 

     

    you should be fine using either one if they are charging the device did you look on chargers to see if they are different amps or volts? Hope to hear your feedback.

      Yeah I did and they are different (we had an older model and it had a charge the same shape and size but different amps and volts).  Sorry I don't have them both with me atm, the one it is hooked up to now says 5.1V -- 850mA and is Motorola model number FMP5504A.  If anyone else has the AirCard 770S and could check its charger against those numbers I'd sure appreciate it.

       

      Thanks for responding.

    Well they both seem to work fine, still puzzling though.  The reason I became really concerned was one day started getting the No Battery error and to my surprise, found there were many others having the same issue.  Now after reading the forum I know it has nothing to do with the power cord, but like others I have replaced the battery and still get the same error repeatedly.  Frustrating.
