While it is possible with some, but not all NiMh chargers, it is not recommended. Charging alkaline batteries can make them leak chemicals. Only attempt this if you are experienced with electronics and are willing to deal with leaking batteries. The batteries often leak while being recharged, but sometimes they leak later in the device they power. Even if they do recharge, you will probably only get about 5 cycles. I would highly recommend that you get some NiMh batteries. They only cost about 6 times as much as alkalines, but they can be recharged hundreds of times.
If its a NiMH battery then yes. The Energizer charger will charge ANY brand of NiMH rechargeable batteries.
It is called a battery charger.
It's a good idea to avoid charging any battery with a charger that was not designed specifically for that kind of battery. A car (vehicle) charger is generally designed to recharge 12 volt lead acid batteries. (The actual voltage of the battery and charge is a bit higher than 12 volts.) Rechargable battery packs come in different voltages, and many if not most are not lead acid types. A lot are nickel-cadmium or lithium types, and they need a "controlled charge" that a vehicular battery charger will not be able to provide. And that's setting aside the issue of the voltages of the battery and the charger, which is critical.It's a bad idea to attempt to recharge a battery with a charger that is not designed to recharge that "flavor" of energy storage device.
Yes.Most ordinary "nonchargeable" batteries can very well be recharged a few times.Most alkaline and lithium batteries can be recharged from 3 to 10 times.Some lithium batteries even more.I have actually not experimented with other "nonchargeable" batteries.Problems:The problem with recharging these types of batteries is that they are not designed to be recharged!It should be done slowly over long time rather than very fast like most chargers today does.You can not complain either if the batteries actually start leaking.They might even "violently" crack open (Explode) if you try to charge them with a lot of current. This so called "explosion" is however not an actual explosion. Using the word "Explosion" causes un-needed fear. What actually may happen is that the pressure inside the battery increases during the charging process. the sealing of the battery may rupture and some of its content, acid or alkaline, may be forcefully sprayed out. This of which is harmfull to skin, espechially eyes. Slow recharging ensures low pressure and less chance of seal breaking.My method and experiences.:I recharge my Alkaline and Lithium AA Batteries over a time of approx 16 hours. My battery charger is adjustable and can deliver 25-200 mA. When recharging slowly with only 50mA, the batteries keep quite well and can be recharged a few times.If recharging at 200 mA, they get warm (due to gas buildup and high pressure inside). This pressure causes batteries to crack open and leak. This mean that battery is forever dead.As of not exactly knowing the capacity of a nonchargeable battery, it is a bit difficult to give a time frame for recharging. We can however somewhat count on a capacity comparable to similar rechargeable NiMh batteries. These batteries today are close to 2000 MAh. Easy math tells us that recharging such a battery at only 50 mAH takes time. Straight forward, 40 hours, but taken into consideration the loss factor of charging (approx 40%), it would take close to 60 hours to fully recharge.If recharging at 100MAh this time would be halved to 30 Hours.My experience though is that when I try to recharge a battery for that long, it will start to leak, almost no matter what. I never charge my alkaline batteries for more than approx 15-20 hours at 50-75 MAh. This will of course not give a full charge but the batteries can withstand it better than a full charge.They last for ages afterwards in my mouse or keyboard.Note:My battery charger is full of corrosion due to battery-fluid from alkaline batteries.This mainly because I forget the batteries in there for too long a time, or try to recharge too many times.
This depends on how the batteries are connected and what the voltage of the charger is.Open a discussion question page with this information for a complete answer.
The camera operates on batteries,weather nicad( rechargeable) or alkaline or lithium. So no matter what,you must recharge batteries. If you purchase rechargeable batteries and the charger, you can recharge them outside the camera. If you don't recharge batteries with the supplied charger,you will shorten the life span of the batteries or kill them.
Few alkaline battery chargers have been made. The process to recharge alkaline batteries hasn't been very successful. Most rechargeable alkaline batteries will only recharge a few times and you have to make sure you use the correct type of charger. It can be very dangerous if you use the wrong one.
You can purchase a battery charger with rechargeable batteries in the battery section of stores like CVS or Walmart. Remember that you can only use rechargeable batteries in a battery charger.
The AX-Synth does not recharge the batteries. You have to get an external AA Ni-MH charger.
A battery charger can be used to test a battery if the charger includes a voltmeter, so you can read off the voltage. Note: A battery charger is designed to be used only for rechargeable batteries. It can be very dangerous to try to use a battery charger to test or recharge normal non-rechargeable batteries.
If its a NiMH battery then yes. The Energizer charger will charge ANY brand of NiMH rechargeable batteries.
It is not advisable to charge different brands of rechargeable batteries in a Rayovac Smart charger.
It is called a battery charger.
where did you get a battery charger that charges 1.5v cells. non rechargeable batteries are 1.5 volts. rechargeable batteries are 1.2 volts. i would throw that thing away and get a new charger.
The PSP comes with a charger so you can recharge its battery. There is also a product called the PSP Rechargeable Battery Pack that can give your PSP power up to 6 hours when your batteries die.
It typically takes around 1-2 hours to recharge a standard AA rechargeable battery using a battery charger designed for rechargeable batteries. It's important to follow the manufacturer's guidelines to avoid overcharging and damaging the battery.
Purchase rechargeable batteries with charger.
