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.
From prior testing experience, 1.5V batteries are dead at approximately .9 volts.
It depends on the load.
No, the battery charger has to match the voltage of the battery it is to charge.
Yes. The voltage of charger has to be slightly higher than the battery for it to be able to charge the 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.
It depend on what the rating voltage of the LEDs are.
no it will burn the vacuum out too much voltage
Fully charged should be around 12.8
No, you cannot charge an 8 volt battery with a 6 volt charger. The voltage of the charger must match the voltage of the battery.
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
yes more voltage
12 volt
Usually 12 Volt
No, the battery charger has to match the voltage of the battery it is to charge.
12 volt of an ordinary inverter 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.
Some have a switch for 6 or 12V - if not you will "cook" a 6 volt battery using a 12 Volt charger
12 volt.
Yes, it has twice the voltage power.
