Default Mains adapter query

Anyone technically minded who can answer this....

I am using a HTC Touch Pro mains charger for my X1 (as it has a longer cable) which charges the X1 fully.

I did notice the back of the X1 getting a little warm, so double checked the outputs on the original X1 charger and the TouchPro one.

X1 = 5v 700mA
TouchPro = 5v 1A

Is this likely to be a problem?

amps are not pushed into a device
it's the max current a device can draw without
the psu lowering the volts

it would be a mayor design flaw if a chargable device
could draw more current then it could handle and damage
it or start a fire

so dont worry
hhhmm ok i may be a jerk but i'm a jedi jerk like my father was before me
BTW "I can't use a skeleton arm with that"

I have noticed the same problem, I have switched to the original charger.
