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

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.


How much does it cost to recharge a cell phone battery?

Only running cost is the cost of electricity consumed to charge the battery through a charger. How many units of electricity is consumed will depend on the capacity of battery, efficiency of the charger (and so losses of energy in the charger in form of heat and radiation). You can estimate the power consumed by the voltage and wattage rating of the charger and how long it takes to charge the phone battery fully. - Neeraj Sharma


What charger do you need for a 24 volt battery?

The formula you are looking for is I = W/E. Amps = Watts/Volts. 300/24 = 12.5 amps. A good charger with an output of 15 amps will do the job nicely. The time that it will take to charge the battery will depend on the amp/hrs of the connected battery and the state of discharge that the battery is in when charging starts.

Why is my 2004 Mercury Monterey make a clicking noise and won't start?

I would suspect the battery has been discharged, is defective, or you have loose or corroded battery terminals. Remove and clean the terminals and if that does not solve the problem charge the battery with a battery charger. If it will not take a charge then replace the battery.

Why does your car not start with a jump?

If you know it is the battery then try using a charger to charge the battery, make sure that you clean the battery connection terminals. If the battery will not take a charge from a charger then replace it, if a battery gets too dead it can't be revived. Also, have your alternator checked before driving if you didn't cause the problem with sitting or leaving the lights on etc.
