Well what you do is you get the mAh and divide it by the output of the charger.
Ex
1100mAh/20output=5
So that was an example and i got 5 hours.
Hope This Helped!!( :
4-6 hours depending on if it is completely drained.
Most Sites Say 6 hours the initial charge and 4 hours every subsequent charge.
It would depend on how much mah output your battery has. Here's the formula for how long you need to charge a COMPLETELY dead battery: Mah of battery ÷ mah of charger = number of hours
About 2-3 hours
It would depend on the condition of the battery.
if you charge it for too long. keep a close eye on it as it is charged.
I would say it depends on how long the battery sat around at the retailer. If you bought a battery that is very popular and fits many models then it probably has not sat around very long. If your battery is an oddball, and has been sitting, then it may need a charge. I would recommend a charger with an automatic setting which will cut off when the charge is complete. Rick.
It would only run as long as the battery had a sufficient charge.
The car battery has 12 volts; you need MORE than that to charge it. You can't charge it with 6 volts, unless you somehow raise the voltage. In that case, how long it takes to charge the car battery will depend on the capacity of the charging device. Usually a few hours.
With a charger specifically designed to charge this battery.
Depends on how low of charge the battery is. I would guess around 6 hours on a dead battery. I suggest you use an automatic charger so you do not have to guess.
I have learned that when i get new batteries for my hobby cars you want to fully charge the battery to the recommended hrs, you want to charge the battery fully because it will improve how long your battery will last on one charge and how long the battery's life will be.
How long does it take for an 18v battery to charge
How long it takes to charge any battery depends on how much electrical charge it can hold. The physical size of a battery can give an indication of how much charge it may hold: the larger the battery, the more electrical charge it is likely to be able to hold. or you could just divide the mAh of the battery by the output rate of the charger. ex: 5000 mAh on a 3000 milliamp output charger would be 1hr 36min. and 3300 mAh on the same charger would be 1hr 10min. and so on.
I assume you mean how long to charge the battery. You should never let the alternator charge a dead battery if possible. The alternator is designed to keep the battery charged but not to charge a dead battery. You put a strain on the alternator and it can cause a diode to burn out. Drive home and then put a battery charger on the battery to fully charge it.
30 year old battery?? I have never heard of a battery lasting this long. This has to be a record of some sort. I would contact the battery manufacture as they may want this battery and give you a new one for it. Anyway if the battery will not hold a charge it has a dead cell and needs to be replaced.
