Yes, it can be used to charge that battery. The chargers rating, 2 amps, is the maximum that can be drawn from it.

Can you charge a 28 volt Gill aircraft battery with a 12 volt car charger?
No, the battery charger has to match the voltage of the battery it is to charge.
Can you charge a 6 volt battery with a 12 volt battery charger on slow 2amp charge?
No.
Can you use a 12 volt charger to charge 14.4 volt battery?
Yes. The voltage of charger has to be slightly higher than the battery for it to be able to charge the battery.
Can a 12-volt solar battery charger charge a 36-volt battery?
No, a 12-volt charger cannot charge a 36-volt battery. The electrical potential difference across the leads of a charger must exceed the electrical potential difference across the terminals of any battery it is expected to charge. And 12 volts is much less than 36 volts.WHY?The 36-volt battery would require at least 39.3 volts to get to a float charge. This would charge the battery to 80% quickly, and then take a logarithmic period of time to finish the battery. To actually charge the 36-volt battery correctly would require roughly 43.2 volts, but if we can't get 39, this is irrelevant.The 12-volt charger has no chance.The answer above is correct; there is no way the 12-volt charger can charge a 36-volt battery. However, the voltages given apply only to lead-acid batteries. They would be different for nickel metal hydride or lithium cells. You still need a charger with more voltage that the battery voltage in any case.
Can you use a 3.5 amp charger to charge a 12 volt battery?
You can charge a 12 volt battery with a 6 AMP charger. The amount of amps put out by the charger is actually the rate which the power flows out from the charger, not the amount of volts it will charge. Volts and Amps are two different things. You can't charge up a 12 volt battery all the way, using a 6 volt charger. You can charge a 12 volt battery with a 12 volt charger rated at '6 amps'. It will charge the battery faster than a 2 amp charger will, but it will take longer than using a 12 amp charger. You probably don't want to use anything higher than a 12-16 amp charger for charging a 12 volt battery. Some chargers are equipped with a 60amp boost charge that is used for starting the vehicle, without having much of a charge in the battery. You DO NOT want to attempt charging a battery with it set to a 60amp boost charge. That is for starting vehicles only and could damage your battery. Keep in mind that the lower the amps are, that you use to charge the battery (1-2amps), will result in the charge lasting longer without recharging it, than if it was charged up at a higher setting (12-16amps).
Can a 12 volt battery charger be used to charge a 24 volt battery?
no it can't
Can a 9 volt charger be used to charge a 7.2 volt battery?
no
Can a 12 volt charger be used to charge a 8 volt battery?
No
Can you charge an 8 volt battery with 6 volt charger?
No, you cannot charge an 8 volt battery with a 6 volt charger. The voltage of the charger must match the voltage of the battery.
How long should you charger a 7.2 battery with a 9.6 volt charger?
You do not charge a 7.2 volt battery with a 9.6 volt charger period unless you want to ruin the battery. You charge it with a 7.2 volt charger.
Can you charge a 28 volt Gill aircraft battery with a 12 volt car charger?
No, the battery charger has to match the voltage of the battery it is to charge.
Can a 9 volt battery charger be used to charge a 7.2 V battery pack?
NO.
Can a 12 volt charger charge a 8volt battery?
No, a 12 volt charger will overcharge a 8 volt battery and destroy it.
Can a 5 volt 1.4 amp charger be used to charge a 5 volt 1 amp battery?
Yes. A battery draws what it needs from the charger, the charger does not force current into the battery. The voltage spec. is the same. Things would be different if you were to try to charge a five volt battery with a ten volt charger. You would probably blow the battery. Hope this helps.
Can you charge a 6 volt battery with a 12 volt battery charger on slow 2amp charge?
No.
Can you charge a 5 volt battery with a car charger?
No, an automobile battery charger outputs 12 Volts. This is far too many volts to charge a 5 Volt battery. You would destroy the 5 Volt battery with this charger.
How you charged the 12 volt battery?
Charge it with a 12 volt battery charger.
