No, a 12-volt charger cannot charge a 36-volt battery. The electrical potential difference across the leads of a charger must exceed the electrical potential difference across the terminals of any battery it is expected to charge. And 12 volts is much less than 36 volts.
WHY?
The 36-volt battery would require at least 39.3 volts to get to a float charge. This would charge the battery to 80% quickly, and then take a logarithmic period of time to finish the battery. To actually charge the 36-volt battery correctly would require roughly 43.2 volts, but if we can't get 39, this is irrelevant.
The 12-volt charger has no chance.
The answer above is correct; there is no way the 12-volt charger can charge a 36-volt battery. However, the voltages given apply only to lead-acid batteries. They would be different for nickel metal hydride or lithium cells. You still need a charger with more voltage that the battery voltage in any case.
What else can I help you with?
Can you use a 12 volt charger to charge 14.4 volt battery?
It is not recommended to use a 12 volt charger to charge a 14.4 volt battery as the charger may not provide enough voltage to fully charge the battery. Using the correct voltage charger will ensure efficient and safe charging of the battery.
Can you charge a 500mA battery with a 1300mA charger?
Yes, you can charge a 500mA battery with a 1300mA charger. The battery will only draw the amount of current it needs for charging, so it will not be harmed by the higher current output of the charger. However, make sure the charger voltage matches the battery's voltage requirement.
Can you charge a 28 volt Gill aircraft battery with a 12 volt car charger?
No, you cannot charge a 28 volt aircraft battery with a 12 volt car charger. The charger voltage needs to match the battery voltage for safe and effective charging. Using a charger with a lower voltage can damage the battery and pose safety risks.
Can you charge a 6 volt battery with a 12 volt battery charger on slow 2amp charge?
It is not recommended to charge a 6 volt battery with a 12 volt battery charger as it can damage the battery. The higher voltage can overcharge the battery and cause it to overheat. It is important to use the correct charger with the matching voltage to prevent damage to the battery.
Is a 2 amp battery charger the same as a 1 amp battery charger?
No, a 2 amp battery charger has a higher charging capacity than a 1 amp battery charger. This means the 2 amp charger can charge a battery faster than the 1 amp charger. It's important to use the appropriate charger to avoid damaging the battery.
Can you charge a 75volt battery with a 12volt charger?
No.
Can you charge a 300 lb 9volt diesel battery with a 12volt trickle charger?
No
Can any battery charger charge a marine battery?
Chargers don't care is the battery is used on a boat, a car, or whatever. What is important is that you match the voltage of the battery and the charger. Don't use a 12volt charger on a 24volt battery, etc.
How do you charge a 12volt battery from a 220volt home system?
With a 12 volt battery charger that is made to plug into a 220 volt circuit.
Can you use a 12volt 6amp battery charger to charge a 12volt 75amp battery?
Yes, you can use a 12-volt 6-amp battery charger to charge a 12-volt 75-amp battery. However, charging will be slow, as the charger provides a limited current of 6 amps. It's important to monitor the charging process to avoid overcharging, especially if the charger doesn't have an automatic shut-off feature. For more efficient charging, consider using a charger with a higher amperage rating that matches the battery's capacity.
How long should you charge a 12volt RC car battery?
I recommend you use an automatic charger but if you do not have one and the battery is fully discharged then click the link and insert the battery capacity in mAh and the charge rate in mA to determine the amount of hours to charge the 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.
How do you hook up 2- 6volt batterys to be able to charge them with a 12volt charger?
Connect them together in Series. Connect the negative post of one battery to the positive post of the other battery. Then connect the negative charger cable to one negative battery post and the positive to the positive post of the other battery.
Can you charge a 12volt battery from a 24 volt battery?
Not by connecting them directly, that'd be too powerful.
How can you get your battery to charge with out the charger?
You cannot charge a battery without a battery charger or having it charged by the alternator in your vehicle while it is running.
What is the fastest way to charge the battery?
There is no only one way to charge it and that is with a battery charger. A 15 amp battery charger will charge it about as fast as it needs to be charged.
Can you purchase a battery charger for your 2008 dodge charger?
sure, you can buy a battery charger that will charge any car battery.
