I'm wondering if it's safe to power my 12V 0.75A keyboard with a 12V 1A adapter. I know that generally using an adapter with a higher amperage is fine, but I'm a bit worried that the extra amperage could damage the keyboard or cause issues. Can someone clarify if this is a concern or not?

Yes, you can totally use that adapter! It's common to use a power adapter with a higher amperage than what the device requires. Just make sure the voltage matches.
Don't worry! The device will only draw the amperage it needs, so using a 12V 1A adapter for your 0.75A keyboard is perfectly safe. The extra amperage won't blow anything up, that's just not how electricity works.
Thanks for confirming that!
