Should a battery charger have to have a transformer and a rectifier to produce DC volts?
Yes, a battery charger typically requires both a transformer and a rectifier to convert AC voltage from the power source into the DC voltage needed to charge batteries. The transformer steps down the voltage to a suitable level, while the rectifier converts the AC voltage to DC. Some modern chargers may use switch-mode designs that incorporate these functions in a more compact form, but the principles of voltage transformation and rectification still apply.

Does a battery charger have to have a transformer and a rectifier to produce dc volts?
A battery charger does not necessarily have to use a transformer and a rectifier to produce DC voltage, although they are commonly used in many designs. A transformer steps down AC voltage to a lower level, while a rectifier converts AC to DC. However, some chargers may utilize switch-mode power supplies or other techniques to directly convert AC to DC without a traditional transformer. In those cases, different methods of voltage regulation and conversion are employed.
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.
How long should a 7.2v 1800mah radio control car battery take to charge if the charger outputs 16.5v?
It depends on how many mah your charger can produce
Can you use an 18 volt charger to charge a 14.4 volt battery?
Yes, a standard battery charger produces 13.8 volts when it is charging a battery. If you are thinking of using a charger that you plug into the wall that is used for electronic equipment, don't. The battery usually wants more amperage that they can produce and the device usually will burn out.
How do you find out how long it takes to charge a 9.6 1100 mAh battery?
Need to know what the maximum output in amps or mA the battery charger can produce.
How rectifier transformer convert ac to dc energy?
The transformer produces AC at the required voltage, and then one, two or four diodes are connected to it to produce pulsating DC, which is then smoothed to DC by a series inductor, or, in low-power supplies, by a parallel reservoir capacitor. A single diode is called a half wave rectifier because it passes the positive half of the wave and suppresses the negative. Two diodes in conjunction with a centre-tap on the secondary make a full wave rectifier, while four diodes can be connected as a bridge rectifier, which is also full-wave and does not need a centre-tap.
Are there carbon monoxide fumes from a battery charger?
Due to the chemical compositions of batteries (most batteries contain a form of acid which reacts to create electricity) neither the battery charger nor the battery is likely to produce CO (Carbon Monoxide)
Can a 350mA charger be exchanged for a 800mA battery charger?
Yes, a 800mA charger can be used in place of a 350 mA charger. The number represents the maximum amount of current that the charger is designed to produce. The main thing to look for is that the output voltages are the same rating in both chargers.
How do you charge a battery using dynamo?
A "Dynamo" is a DC charger; these will overcharge any battery there is and requires a regulator circuit, they will produce voltage proportional to their rotation. Simply hook it to the battery (watch your positive and negative) and crank the generator / dynamo.
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.
Does a transformer convert AC to DC?
No, a transformer does not change AC to DC. For this purpose there is a device known as a rectifier, and to transform it back to AC from DC you'll need an inverter. Transformers are only useful with AC due to the alternating waveform which induces a voltage in the secondary winding (when it is connected to a load).
What is the usage of transformer?
The usage of transformer is to produce electricity from a main electric unit
