Cartridge chip question

I have some 7800 cartridge chips on order, in the meantime- I see the chips are for both x800s and x880s. In the past when I had chip problems Dana instructed me to try the chips off real Epson carts… I have tons of 9880 carts, so question is… can I try 9880 Epson chips on IJM carts in my 7800?
I’m hesitant to just try it as I find it fairly easy to kill chips…
Thanks, T
