It depends on what you're using it for, because many electronic devices are designed to work with primary cells that may discharge to as low as 0.90 to 1.0 V per cell. But as a general rule I use about 1.2V, since that's the nominal voltage of rechargable batteries such as NiCd. That's when I discard a non-rechargable battery.

Can you charge a 28 volt Gill aircraft battery with a 12 volt car charger?

No, the battery charger has to match the voltage of the battery it is to charge.


Can you use a 12 volt charger to charge 14.4 volt battery?

Yes. The voltage of charger has to be slightly higher than the battery for it to be able to charge the battery.


Can a 12-volt solar battery charger charge a 36-volt battery?

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.


Can a 3 volt battery light 5 leds?

It depend on what the rating voltage of the LEDs are.

What is the lowest voltage reading of a battery you can fit?

Since this question is in the car battery category I am going to make a couple of assumptions:Most 1960 vintage and older automobiles were equipped with a six volt battery, the minimum usable voltage of these batteries is 6.1 volts fully charged is 6.6 voltsMost 1960 and later automobiles are fitted with a 12 volt battery, minimum usable voltage is about 12.1 volts, fully charged is around 13.2 volts

Can you use a 9 volt charger for a 6 volt battery?

This is not advised! The 9-volt charger might have a current limiter so that nothing burns up, but it any case if left on it will destroy the 6 volt battery by overcharging. A 6-volt charger is not expensive.


Can you charge an 8 volt battery with a 6 volt charger?

Some have a switch for 6 or 12V - if not you will "cook" a 6 volt battery using a 12 Volt charger
