Is there any difference from one another? I keep hearing that using chargers is absolutely a no-go and that power supplies are much safer and better overall. Do you guys confirm this?

Thanks in advance.

    The general difference is, a charger will try to keep the current constant and therefore slightly vary the voltage which may harm the equipment when used as a power supply. A dedicated power supply will try to keep the voltage constant, i.e. independent of the current the hardware is taking.
