The 6v side will do nothing for you. The 12v side will overcharge the cells. What is your end goal here?

Have one Battery that is low. Some here suggested I charge it by itself to see if it would come up.
Do not know of any 8V charger.

Yeah, you can bring up that one battery with a 12v charger. It has to be set at 12v. Note that your charger will think it's trying to charge a 12v battery and will throw a lot of amps at it. Keep an eye on things when charging by checking the battery voltage fairly frequently.

You can do this to bring it up, but be sure to babysit it
