Charge a phone without the charger?

There is no safe way to charge a phone without a charger made specifically for that phone/battery


How do you charge a 7.2V Li-ion battery without using the specified battery charger?

There is no safe way to charge ANY battery without a charger rated for that particular battery. You could easily destroy the battery if you try.


Is it safe to use a 7.5 charger on a 7.2v battery also is it ok to use a charger with a 100mA higher charge rate than the battery?

Not that i can think of where you'd find a charger labeled for a 7.5 V battery, but - No. A charger rated for a higher voltages won't know when to turn off, and if it's also pushing a higher charge current it's likely to overheat the battery.


What happens to a 6 volt battery with a 12 volt charge?

A: Now that depends on how good the 12v charger is. If it can pump a lot of current out of it that will destroy the battery by heating it, If the charger is current limited then the battery will be safe and so will be the charger. If the charger has no current limiting then the charger will heat up and destroy itself. The whole thing comes up to be a power question who is more powerful battery or charger


How long time will be taken by the 12V 7Ah charger to charge a 12V 22Ah battery?

A charger designed for a 12 volt battery should not be used to charge an 8.4V battery. It is likely to damage the battery and in the worst case can cause a fire. There are some chargers that can be used with a variety of battery voltages and chemistries but unless you are certain that the charger is safe and effective on a different battery voltage, assume that it cannot be used.


Can Nimh batteries can be charged with Nicd charger?

It is always better to use a charger designed to charge a particular battery type. Using a NiCad charger for NiMh batteries or vice versa can cause damage to the charger or batteries, especially if the charger is designed to charge the batteries in under two hours. The worst case is a fire risk. Some charger and battery combinations will work perfectly well together but it is safe to assume that the charger will only be suitable for the battery types stated on it.


Can a 9 volt battery charger be used to charge a mobile phone?

Most of the mobile phones have batteries of less than 5V rating, mostly up to 3.7V.Chargers are typically rated for less than 5V.Caution: It is not safe to charge these with a 9V charger. The battery may explode..


How do you charge a battery on a 2004 Suzuki Savage LS650?

I have a 95 Suzuki Savage LS650. To charge the battery, you need a "trickle charger". The settings you use and the amount of time you need to charge it for are in the instructions that come with the charger. It will probably take about 8 hours to charge it. Oh, and the battery will need to be out of the bike. They do make faster chargers, but the trickle charger will give you the best charge and you won't risk damaging the battery. Then to keep it charged when the bike isn't in use, I keep a "float charger" attached to it while it's installed in the bike. It's a small device that just adds a little juice as it's needed. Good luck and have a safe summer! TAKE CARE with a trickle charger as a battery of that type and size will most often be over loaded by a constant charge rate of 2AMPS which is most trickle types. A "Float Mode" charger such as the Schumacher Battery Companion has a max charge rate of 1.5Amps and a peak charge voltage of about 16vdc which prevents heat build up and the high voltage is good for the battery internals without cooking your battery. You can charge the battery from a dead state with one of these and if you forget about it the charger cycles off when the voltage peaks so you don't boil your battery. The relationship between charge amps vs volts and the health of your battery internals is huge which I have not gone into here.


Can you charge an ATV battery with a car charger?

No because an ATV battery only can take 2 amps and a car charger pushes out 6 to ten But you can use a float charger there perfectly safe. it depends on your charger. most chargers have several amp settings to choose from. mine has settings for 2, 10, 25, 40, and 200 amps for jump starting. as long as you make sure the volts, 6 or 12, are right it will charge it.

sure. like KINKOO brand's portable charger a very reliable portable charger for phone. you may google it...


Can a 3.7 volt battery charger be used to charge a 6 volt battery?

Short answer, no. Not so short answer, it depends on the battery's chemistry. In all cases, you're not going to charge it completely no matter the chemistry, but you might charge it anywhere from nothing to ~75% depending on the chemistry and the 6 volt charger's top voltage(It's not 6 volts! If it's a lead charger, you might expect a top voltage of ~6.8 volts). Also, you want to make sure the charger's amperage doesn't exceed the battery's charging current's ability or you might overheat the battery and destroy it. In a longer answer, it is possible to convert a 6 - 7 volt supply to 8-9 volts with a "boost up" converter but that's either going to require buying the device or making it yourself. Even if you we're to do that, you need to make sure the battery's chemistry's safe limits aren't exceeded. NiMH, for example, has a quick downtown in its voltage near the end of its charging, and if the charging isn't cut-off there, the battery will keep absorbing charge until it overheats and explodes. another comment: yes if it fits into the device normally though it would take a little longer to charge
