The Droid Razr Maxx charger will charge your Turbo but at a somewhat reduced rate of charge and take a  much longer time period to reach full charge. The "Turbo Charger" gives an increase in voltage that it delivers to higher than a regular 5 volt USB charger. This allows for a faster charge rate and the battery has been made and tested for this faster/higher heating range to be safe.

Yes. Just plug it on and try. Some chargers will not supply enough juice. Plug it in and check back in ten minutes to see if the battery level has increased.
