Apx how long would it take to charge a regular sized 12v RV battery using the built in dc charger. Thanks

5 or 6 hours for a 100 Amphour battery or faster if you use the 120 AC to run a 15 - 20 amp battery charger which I prefer

We will never get a clear answer on that question. Too many variables. This little gen is only going to be able to get about a 25% charge in a couple of hours. This runs my 25amp house charger with 2 type 34dc batteries and I get a good "top em off affect". Batteries need 8 plus hours of low amp charging to get the last 25% of charge. I'm not sure if this will help but I tried. I feel this little gen is an easy insurance policy to keep the heat and lights going on multi day stays. I wouldn't use the dc charger on the gen unless my converter charger failed to operate.

I purchased this generator to keep my pontoon battery maintained while on the water if needed i used it once it charged it within an hour.

Get the quick charge $80 booster from Lowes The Earthquake 800W is no good for this I tried and it will just keep popping the little breaker Use on AC and keep it 7 amps and under I bought it for a camp fridge,a 100w bulb and to charge my cordless drill up north it's a beauty

By regular size, do you mean like a group 24 or 27? I would not rely on the 12V side of the generator to charge my house battery. I would get a 30 to 15 amp adapter and plug that directly into the 120V AC receptacle on the generator. Let your on board charger charge your battery.

If the rv is a 12 volt system then yes. The batteries would be connected in a parallel configuration .you can tell if this is correct by looking at the battery terminals. If the positive+ is connected from one battery to the + of the other battery then the system is most likely a 12v system. But if the + of one battery is connected to the - of the other battery the batteries are connected in series making the system 24v in that case the charger could only charge one battery at a time

Your in luck as I happen to work for Stanley Black and Decker. If you started at 12.8VDC you already had a partial charge. 6 hours to top off the battery is a reasonable expectation. For a fully discharged unit (~12.2V) charging a minimum of 12 hours is recommended. This unit uses polymer lithium cells that dump their energy extrememly fast. Its the only reason this thing works at all. It is meant to assist a weak battery not jump a dead one!

I dont use the wall charger,I use my imax b6,setup for this battery.if I had to guess...stock charger takes about 2-3 hours to charge.i believe a red light means charging,green is charged.my imax charges the battery in 5 mins.the truck kills the battery in about 5-10 mins.this truck wasnt built for long hardcore rock crawling....its something cheap to see if your intrested in rock crawlers.most people buy this vehicle to use the axels and parts on custom scale 4x4 rc trucks.

I dont know the size of the connector but it seems to be a standard for 12 volt dc. Not a smart charger. The charge on the battery was 14.2 volts after charging. Its a standard plug for the good old USA.

For this Belkin grip 2000 mAh battery case, you can charge it at 2 amps and it will take 1 hour. It will take a half hour at 4 amps.

This is all the information I have on this item: Keeps 12V batteries charged. Fully automatic. Turns On and Off as needed. Allows safe charging of RV, deep cycle, or most batteries that may have a long storage period. On-board feature allows mounting of charger nest to battery on collectibles, street rods, and other infrequently used vehicles. Hardware and mounting brackets are included. 1.5A trickle charge rate charges in 2 to 12 hours. LED lights indicate power On and charged. Reverse hookup protection. Molded plastic case. short leads for safety that won´t get tangled in moving engine parts. Thank you. This is all the information I have on this item: Keeps 12V batteries charged. Fully automatic.

I have it charging two deep cycle 6 volt battery's wired in series for 12 volts on my camper works great for that. I would think it will charge any 12 volt system, larger would just take longer.

if your battery is low it may take up to 3 0r 4 days since it's a low amp charge and designed to keep the battery at full charge once it's at full charge. This charger is super for use when you don't drive the vehicle a lot and it sits for any length. it can be used on the battery in the car or taken out, once it's on it can stay plugged in all winter of summer just unplug it when you go driving. If the car stays outside they make a waterproof model. If your looking for a fast charger this is not what you want, if you do buy this make sure it's the 12 volt model ... hope this will help you

no as long as its a 12v battery it will charge it, the bigger it is the longer it will take.

Charge time is determined by whether you set it to 8 amp or 12 amp. For my Chevy volt, it charges the same as the charger that came with the Volt. On 220/240 40 amp it takes 4 hours. On this charger (same as the Volt OEM charger) it takes 10 hours at 12 amp and 14 hours at 8 amp. I just bought this because I wanted an extra charger so that I could leave the oem charger in the car and still have a 110v charger in my garage.

Several days with apprx. Driving time two hrs a day. The vehicle will start to slow down. 12v is the way to go vrs the 6v batteries. Hope this helps!

as the charger is 110 , maybe if you used a 12vdc to 110vac adapter it would charge the battery, most of the small ones plug in to the lighter plug on a car, and alot of the newer trucks have 12vdc all the time.

Charging time will depend on several factors... how sunny it is, how much capacity (rated in Amp Hours) your battery has, etc. The R15-300 produces 0.3A (at 15V) to charge a 12V battery. For example... If your battery capacity is 10AHr (amp-hours) and it's down to 70% full, that means you need to add 3 AHr back in... As this panel produces 0.3A, that means in 10 hours of full sunlight (max sun) you will restore the depleted 3Ahr. Of course, the sun intensity isn't always at max strength, so it would actually take longer than that. If you need to recharge faster, then a larger panel will be needed. I hope this helps explain it. Pat

volt charger is 8 amps and this one can charge at 12 amps. save you 1/3 the time

I bought this charger because it charges ALL normal batteries 6 volt , 12 volt car , truck, motorcycle big and small tractors . Being a 1.5 amp charger it could take awhile to fully charge a low charged battery .

You need to request them to make it 240 with a proper 240 plug. Nema 14-50 is the most common 240 plug used at RV parks. I had one that worked just fine on my Volt. It took roughly 4+ hours to charge from a depleted battery. This long charge time is a limitation of the Volt's anemic 3.3 charger and not this unit's charging capacity.
