Can I use a PlayBook Charger for BB10 Device?

Hey everyone. I was wondering if anyone else regularly uses the PB charger to charge their BB10 device. If so, over time have you noticed a drop in battery performance?

I've been using the PB chargers for my Q10 for about a year now (I've had the Q10 for about a year and a half) and it seems to me that although the phone charges quickly, I've had to charge much more frequently.

Before I decided to use the PB charger on my phone, I researched and didn't see anything negative about using it this way. People indicated they were also using it on BB10 and Legacy devices.

Just wanted to get everyone's thoughts on the matter. I've attached some screen shots I took a few min ago and it shows the max battery life has now dissipated to 8hrs. Thanks for the feedback!

you should have no side effects from using it. Its sold as a "premium/rapid charger" for the bb10 phones actually

That was my understanding as well....but my individual results seems to reflect otherwise. Does this decrease in performance seem typical for a 1.5 year old battery? It seems like I'm getting performance now equal to the Z10 lol.

Maybe I need a new battery, but I noticed that when using the rapid charger, the phone would get hotter faster, etc.

Within using it for the last few min on CB, now I supposedly have 95% left for a 6hr total
