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.
Can you charge an 8 volt battery with a 6 volt charger?
Some have a switch for 6 or 12V - if not you will "cook" a 6 volt battery using a 12 Volt charger
Why is a 12 volt battery stronger than a 6 volt?
Yes, it has twice the voltage power.
Does a 62 volkswagen need a 12 volt battery or a 6?
The 1964 VW Beetle came from the factory with a 6 volt electrical system. Unless it has been upgraded to a 12 volt system you would need a 6 volt battery. I would recommend you check the voltage of the current battery with a volt meter. If there is no battery in the vehicle, just remove a light bulb and check the voltage written on the bulb.
Can you use a 9 volt charger for a 6 volt battery?
This is not advised! The 9-volt charger might have a current limiter so that nothing burns up, but it any case if left on it will destroy the 6 volt battery by overcharging. A 6-volt charger is not expensive.
What voltage is a Harley motorcycle battery?
All Harley Davidson motorcycles have used a 12 volt battery since 1965. Prior to 1965 they used a 6 volt battery.
Addition of batteries increase the total voltage?
Yes.If you connect the batteries in series the total voltage will be the sum of the voltages of the batteries.For example if you connect a 12 volt battery in series with a 6 volt battery the total voltage will be 18 volts.
How many cells does a 6 volt battery have?
It depends on what the 6 cells are, but the battery voltage is just 6 times the cell voltage. In a car battery (lead-acid cells) - 12V In a dry-battery (zinc-carbon cells) - 9V
What voltage should marine battery be charged?
They are all 12 volt. i charge my marine battery for 6 to 8 hrs. on 6 volt. the less voltage with a longer time is best. the faster the charge the more the lead plates in the battery disintegrate. slow and easy for long life of any battery
Can you charge a 12volt battery with a 6volt charger?
NO, a 12 volt battery cannot be charged with a 6 volt charger. To charge any battery, the charging voltage has to be, at least, slightly higher than higher than the voltage of the battery. Current flowing through the battery is what accomplishes the charging, and no current will flow at or below the voltage of the battery to be charged.
Should you set your car battery recharger to 6 volt or twelve volt?
The charger needs to be set to charge for the voltage that the battery is designed to produce. Most car batteries are 12 volt batteries.
What 12 volt battery is best to replace 6 volt battery bank and retain ample reserve capacity?
If your load runs on 6 volts, you cannot replace it with a 12 volt battery. You will be exceeding the voltage rating of your load and will start a fire.If you want more amps (capacity) then you can wire more 6 volt batteries in parallel with the first.
