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.

No, the charger has to match the voltage of the battery that it is charging. Other wise the battery will be overcharged and will become very hot and could expand and cause the electrolyte in the battery to leak out.

No, you need a 9 volt charger.

It depends on what you are plugging it into.

No, the battery will be overcharged and battery damage will occur if it is done.

No! You will just ruin the battery if you try to use a 12 volt charger.

No, the charging voltage has to be higher that the battery's operating voltage. A 9.6 volt battery should be charged with a 9.6 volt charger which will operate at about 10.5 volts.

Can you charge a car battery with a motorcycle battery charger?

Unless it's an old vw bug, cars usually run on a 12 volt dc system nowadays. Motorcycles often run on a 6 volt dc system. Different systems require different charging voltages so you won't ever be able to charge a 12 volt car battery from a 6 volt motorcycle battery charger as the output voltage would be way too low. However, if you can set the battery charger's output to give either a 6 or a 12 volt output, then you must always remember to set it to 12 volts if you want to use it to charge a 12 volt car battery.


What type of charger do you need to charge 6 volt 2 mph kids motorcycle battery?

You need a 6 volt charger. When you buy a charger look for one that monitors the voltage level of the battery while it is charging and when the battery is fully charged it will turn off. Indiscriminate charging of a small battery can easily destroy it. Being left on the charger too long can boil the electrolyte out of the battery. A battery can not recover from this action and it will need to be replaced.


Can a 3.7 volt battery charger be used to charge a 6 volt battery?

Short answer, no. Not so short answer, it depends on the battery's chemistry. In all cases, you're not going to charge it completely no matter the chemistry, but you might charge it anywhere from nothing to ~75% depending on the chemistry and the 6 volt charger's top voltage(It's not 6 volts! If it's a lead charger, you might expect a top voltage of ~6.8 volts). Also, you want to make sure the charger's amperage doesn't exceed the battery's charging current's ability or you might overheat the battery and destroy it. In a longer answer, it is possible to convert a 6 - 7 volt supply to 8-9 volts with a "boost up" converter but that's either going to require buying the device or making it yourself. Even if you we're to do that, you need to make sure the battery's chemistry's safe limits aren't exceeded. NiMH, for example, has a quick downtown in its voltage near the end of its charging, and if the charging isn't cut-off there, the battery will keep absorbing charge until it overheats and explodes. another comment: yes if it fits into the device normally though it would take a little longer to charge
