I thought this was a 12v charger. On my meter it shows 22v. Is this ok to charge a 12v battery or will it burn it out?

Yes it is fine. Most solar panels have or need a charge controller because they put out 24v. This panel has an integrated controller, and will automatically adjust to a 12v (or 24v) battery system.

I am not sure but I read the voltage drops once the charger is connected to a battery. I would assume the company thought of this before selling this product.

Seems to be working on my 12 volt marine battery. I've got LED lighting hooked up to it.

It is 12VDC.Something isn't right, don't use it until you verify what is wrong or you may damage your battery or charger.You may want to double check you meter settings. (12 volt DC. etc.) You might have to return it or call the company.I use mine on a deer feeder and it has worked great!

I have used one ea of these on my riding lawn mower, 74 Ford, 76 Datsun and 85 Chevy never had a battery burn out nor has a battery ever gone dead. Works as advertised.

i leave this hooked up to my 6v lawn mower battery year round have had it for 2 years and never had a problem

It charges both style of batteries. I have charged my 7.2v 1100mah, 7.2v 1600mah battery and my 8.4v 1600mah NIMH and it did the job with no problems. if it will do those it will charge yours just fine. I have had mine for a year and it still works.

I'm not a battery expert, but you should really stick to the charging voltage and initial current they show on the battery. Overcurrent will certainly warm it up and it may leak or explode on you, or just shorten it's life.

I don't know but I've learned if charger says bad battery & shuts off if you can put a little charge in with an older charger, this charger will then take over & gradually bring that battery back from the dead. my charger model is 12 v only and relatively low camps, but it has restored several batteries for me if given the time to work.

I used it on my camera battery charger, and I had no issues. However, I also used it on my curling iron and I fried it. I threw the curling iron away, so I'm not sure of the voltage on it.

Probably not. Your battery pack is giving you 10 watts peak, Your charger needs 9.6 watts. This requires the converter to be 96% efficient. It probably can't make this. Do you know if your 12v device really does need a full 0.8A? Is is that just the max rating of the charger you are trying to replace?

This charger is for a computer. If you plug the charger into 120 volt outlet the other end then goes to the computer where 12 volts charges the battery.

Yeah, it's the correct one. Sorry I answered a bit late, I don't check email until the weekends. Anyway, here's what the label on the charger says EXACTLY: BATTERY CHARGER Part No: 428626 Input: 120VAC - 60Hz 60mA Output: 15VDC - 100mA ~ Hope you enjoy your purchase and that I was of help.

7.2 volt to 18 volt is on this charger as mentioned in another answer. I bought it and use it for my skil 14.4 volt drill. the old charger slipped over the top stem part of the battery.
995227
It says it will charge everything from 7.2 - 18V. I use it for 14.4 volts with no problem. On the bottom it says all 14.4 volts. So it should be good for yours. I'm happy with it.

Yes , the charger will charge batteries between 6v-12v so you will be ok. depending on wich "female connector" you have it should work great. and if it doesn't include the connector you need, you could always run down to your local hobby shop and pick up a adapter .

a volt meter will read anywhere from 13.6 to 14 Volts when fully charged. If it reads 12V you're almost dead. i use my volt meter and my battery charger to test the the amount of charge. Most battery chargers will automatically turn off when the battery is fully charged, but I always check with my colt meter. I have many batteries and I know what I'm talking about. I charge them quite often.

No. You need 120W output and 19.5v while this one is only 65W and 19v! Avoid this cheap charger.

This is a battery, not a charger. And no, an 18-volt battery will not work for a 20-volt application. Also, the connectors have to be specific to your device. Hope that helps.

By that I guess you mean ones that this charger was not designed to work with right? Well, that is a little tricky based on what you are trying to charge. If it is a commercial battery for a drill, you can get something similar to this if you just type the drill's name or model. You don't have to worry about typing the specific battery model number or the specific charger model number and you will see a few results for just the charger mixed in with the results. I typed craftsman 19v and found this one. If you are trying to charge something else or another tool or battery by another manufacturer and you don't know exactly what you are doing, you are asking for trouble but I will give you a few tips. 1) Lithium ion batteries are ticking time bombs. They will explode if over charged with too much voltage or current. 2) LiPo will explode if wrong polarity is used. 3) Most of them have protections from the things that make them explode and some even have them per cell. Some of them though rely on the charger to be smart enough not to over charge and have odd terminals so you can't charge it in any other charger. 4) They all operate in series and some, like this one, even charge in series. Thus with a multimeter, find the polarity of the battery you want to charge and the approximate voltage (I.e. if you have a 24 volt battery and it has 4 terminals and per two terminals you find that they are 10 volts each when low on charge then one can assume that you have 2 sets of 12 volt batteries in a series) then just get some alligator clips and clip them to another power source or power adapter of the same voltage and then sawpt them between the series. One time I really needed a device and I forgot the charger and I did this by connecting the alligator clips to my car for 30 mins then I swapped them to the other terminals for 30 mins too and it got me out of trouble. Just be really careful not to overcharge. Hope this helps.

I don't believe it is a 24 volt charger per se but depending on which charger you have it can charge one or two 12 volt batteries at a time So one 24 volt battery no But if two 12 set up for 24 volt yes

No this charger is 110v only. My batteries don't hold a charge for very long. I got what I paid for.
