Drill Battery Charger
Now I did it.
I touched the contacts together on my battery charger and now it is smoking big time. I am wondering if there would be any issues I should know about if I hot wire my 12 / 14.4 volt drill charger to a car battery to see if it will hold a charge. |

Re: Drill Battery Charger
The drill battery is a ni-cad and the algorithm of that charger is not right for a lead-acid battery |

That is what I was thinking too a point. That is why I asked. THANKS MUCH. Is there any other inputs from the Christmas lurkers ?? Any idea's of what happened to my charger and how or if it can be fixed ?? I REALLY REALLY want to see if this battery will come back too life. I put a very small amount of distilled in cells and it reads 8.36, 5.92, 7.37, 6.73, ECT... |

Re: Drill Battery Charger
If it is a car battery use jumper cables and charge it from your running car. Not very elegant or cost efficient but it should work.
