I bought a new tablet but I’m unable to use the charging cable it came with until I can get an adapter because I don’t have anything that can except USB type C. I have multiple cables with a USB A connector but the tablet says that it’s “slow charging” when I use them. I tried to look this up before posting but for some reason, a lot of websites refer to “normal changing” as slow charging now and I’m unable to find anything relevant to my issue. Would I be fine to use the other cables I have until I can get an adapter?

    No, I specifically remember both being told and researching it my self, every source stated that both slow and fast charging can damage batteries.

        Ok, then either things have changed or I was lied to for the past several years because this is the first time anyone has told me that slow charging was fine.
