I have batteries for a camera that requires double AA batteries. I have rechargeable ones and regular ones for one time use. Cars do not have dissimilar batteries as to the science involved. Car batteries are rechargeable because they have plates submerged in an acid base solution that accepts the charge. The charge is produced by the alternator of the car as the engine runs. The alternator also produces enough power for the electrical items in the car. Once the car battery is charged, it waits for the next time the engine is turned OFF to power the car systems that require electrical power such as clocks, parking lights, and those items powered with the ignition in the ACC (accessory) position. If the battery in your phone is old enough and has reached the limit of its chemical composition, it will not hold a charge, full or otherwise. The charger for the phone is unable to transmit electrons to the battery. The battery must be replaced. Cars batteries are the same. Provided the alternator is working correctly, indicated by the lack of a battery icon on the dashboard, red in color, if a car battery cannot hold a charge, a charger shall be of zero assistance. A new battery is needed. To answer the question directly, no, a dead battery cannot be charged by any means available. End of story. The concept of how batteries work, the technology and the commons things that indicate a battery that has reached the limits of its life is readily available online and can be located via Google Search. A quick phone call to any mechanic or auto parts place shall also render correct information. AutoZone, is the proper name of a business. It needs to be capitalized. Please do so. Your name, Gerardo, is also a proper name that must be capitalized. Mr. G, how come you do not know or do not follow these basic rules of English grammar?

I had this exp before with my old car. left it there until I could not start it.

battery was dead. then I had to jump start with the help from my girlfriend's car.

then drove around for some time longer than 15mins and it started the next day and afterwards.

battery went dead a few times already since I did not use that car at all.

but every time I jump started it and drove for a while, the battery was charged and worked well the next day I tried to start the car.

so you will have to try to drive it around before you leave it for another day. at least 10 - 15 mins

this won't charge the battery to full but just enough. if all is working then you should have no problem starting the car soon after you turn it off and the next day as well...

but after that if you don't use the car much, you will need to warm it up about 5-10 mins every a few days to make sure the battery won't go dead again...

if you have done it.... try to drive it even longer... and start the car every a few hours after you turn it off. so you will see if the battery is actually charging or not.

Is your alternator actually working? If so it will recharge the battery fully after an hour or so of driving, probably enough to restart after about 10 mins.

If you jump started and didn't drive very far, then there may be no problem, you just need to jump again and go for a drive.

If you did drive for 10+ mins, then you have a fault. Either the battery isn't holding charge any more, common problem if the battery is more then 3 years old, or the alternator isn't recharging it properly.

No sometimes you need at least half charged battery for the alternator to charge properly. Never have a empty battery and expect an alternator to charge it. It will not work sometimes.

$20 or so will buy a small charger (2 and 10 amp) -- not much more than the cost of a battery charge. Every vehicle owner should have one of these. They last for decades, and save a lot of headaches and time.

You need at least 12.2 volts to power the magnetic field in an alternator before it can generate power. So no, you can't us an alternator and a dead battery to charge a dead battery.

in theory but it will take a long long time due to spark, light use etc. get a cheap trickle charger, you can leave it plugged in all day as they have detectors built in (double check your brand) and they wont 'fry' the battery as they are slow chargers. remove the plastic plugs if you can so the battery does not pressurise, and if the liquid levels drop below the correct level top up with distilled water.

No. When battery cells have shorted out, battery chargers and or alternators will NOT recharge the battery.

it might be the alternator that is bad and needs replacing - how old is the battery? if battery is less than 3 yrs old and not holding a charge it might be alternator

I did that but the next day it turned off... I guess ill have to take it to autozone to get completely charged. Thanks for ur answer.

I'm not sure if I can get my battery fully charged or I have to take it to autozone? I got charge from another car but the next day it died again so I guess I have to buy another battery or should I take it to charge? Please help lol

That, or you could have someone jump your vehicle. If the battery is dead, but your alternator is fine, it will help recharge it as long as your engine is running.
