Thanks!
As TechniSol has pointed out the higher amperage will not harm your device as your device will only draw what it needs in power usage, meaning if it requires 500 ma that's all that it will draw. Now higher voltage is meaning more then 5v could destroy your device think of it this way, plugging an electric razor that requires 120 volts of AC to work into a system that delivers 240 volts AC will destroy the device. Now that being said, there are some Razors that are designed to work with 120/240 volts of power.
