Did you know that you can save fuel and run your car on water
wiredamerican questioned:
My car battery is drained. I have no battery charger. I do have a powerwheels charger. The small charger says ‘Productivity 12 volts 1.2amps. If I join these leads to my car battery with the right polarity will it payment it? And if so how long will it take to payment a car battery with it. I have some social rank in vital electronics and I am aware of any dangers that may rise, I am wondering if anyone has tried it and if it facility.

ive never tried it that way but i exciting sons potential wheels with my 1 amp dirt bike charger ???
i thought i was the only one to ever do that…but i guess im not lonely. yes, surprisingly it will payment your battery, but with a 1.2 amp drop payment (similar to 2 amp low payment on a battery charger) it will take overnight. about 6-8 hours. my battery was a 900 cold cranking amp duralast from the parts store and its subdue in the car with 3 being.
I’ve never tried it, but it must work. It may take a modest longer than most battery chargers, but what the heck – it indeed couldn’t hurt anything as long as you get the polarity assess.
Must work,best to place it overnight.
I’m wondering if no matter what drained it will keep it draining quicker than it charges with that tiny charger?
Yes it will payment it.. but very very at a snail's pace. It may take a small but it will at a snail's pace payment your battery. But, do not try and start the car while the charger is hooked up or you will just fry the charger.. Your better off just jump starting the vehicle and go get a clad charger or a new battery.
