It is generally not recommended to use a 12v transformer to give a 6v output as it can potentially cause damage to your devices and pose a safety hazard.
The main danger is that the 6v output may not be stable, causing fluctuations in voltage which can damage your devices. Additionally, using a higher voltage transformer can also lead to overheating, short-circuiting, and electric shocks.
While a voltage regulator can help stabilize the output voltage, it is still not recommended to use a higher voltage transformer for a lower output. It is best to use a transformer with the appropriate output voltage to ensure the safety of your devices.
In some cases, it may be acceptable to use a 12v transformer for a 6v output, but this should only be done if you are a trained professional and have a thorough understanding of the electrical system. It is always best to use the proper equipment for the specific voltage needed.
The best way to determine the appropriate transformer is to check the specifications of the device you are powering. Look for the required input voltage and match it with the transformer's output voltage. It is always better to err on the side of caution and use a lower voltage transformer than a higher one.
