Sufficient for powering the Newton, but not enough for fully
charging rechargeables.

No, it will draw pretty much the same amount. The voltage is
stabilized in a way that the electronics always sees more or less
the same voltage and thus draw more or less the same current.

> will pulling more amps damage the 130? or am i fine

You are fine.
