Yes, it is possible, but to a very limited extent. The reason for this is that in order for a rechargable battery to charge there must be electrical current flowing through it. The greater the difference between the volatages of the two batteries, the greater the flow rate. With one fully charged battery and one dead battery, if connected with the polarity correct, then there will be some current flow, and thus a little bit of charge on the dead battery. Again, the charge gained by the dead battery will be very small. Generally, normal vehicle alternator output voltage is from 12 1/2 volts [minimum] to 15 or 16 volts, which results in a relatively rapid charging rate.

How can a capacitor be charged using a battery?

A capacitor can be charged using a battery by connecting the positive terminal of the battery to one terminal of the capacitor and the negative terminal of the battery to the other terminal of the capacitor. This creates a flow of electrons from the battery to the capacitor, storing electrical energy in the capacitor.


Would an 8 volt battery charge on a 12 volt charger?

No chargers usually produce about 1.5 volts above the battery to be charged. By connecting a 12 volt charger to an eight volt battery it will boil the electrolyte in the battery.
