    "Technically Volt will not accept these Amperage "

    the external charger tells the Volt what current in amps to take.

    the low is about 6 amps and our supplied 120 volt charger is a low of 8 amps and a high of 12 amps.

    The Volt internal charger has a HIGH limit and won't take more even if the charger could deliver the amps.

    90% of the charging cord device is safety circuits.
