Could you use this to also charge a car battery?

I'm no expert, but I don't think so. First, this charger is excellent but it still takes a few hours to fully charge a laptop or iPad. So you'd be looking at a very long time for a car battery. Secondly, the charger adapters are designed for household electronics. I suppose someone more handy than myself might find a way to make it work and then if you had lots of time... I like the idea, though. Good luck!

Yes you can . I use it with a generator to keep the agm battery charged in my race car. Thank you

Yes this should work fine however this would be an expensive way to do that. Why not just use a battery charger?

Yes it can. We use it on both 12v car and 12v motorcycle batteries. Just set and forget. Just make sure you select the correct size and battery type. If you're charging a deeply discharged car battery though it will take awhile as it's charge rate is only 1.1 amps.

You probably can if you have the cords for the input and both outputs, but charging the battery pack is slower than charging a device from it. I charge my battery pack at night and then use it to recharge my devices when I am on the go or away from the house.

Wellll, Yes it can, but you don't want to do it.Google and instructables dot com would be your friends here. At a high level the steps are:1. Identify + and - connections on battery.2. Break open battery case (preferably a dead one).3. Remove batteries.4. Add wires to battery contacts.5. Connect wire to a 12 volt DC power supply with 'enough' amps, or to your car battery (better watch that polarity!)But given the fact that a new battery is around 35 bucks - it aint worth doing.

It will damn near charge your car battery. it charges best if you have good quality high output cables. but this little charger works fantastic

I would not. This is not a heavy duty device. It has small clips and small wires. It is designed to provide power to devices directly from the battery.

I think it would -- depends on the style of charging -- also there is a USB cable that can be used.

Yes! it is excellent for car batteries and will maintain the charge without overcharging. - Len - 661-245-2000 - Racecrafters-USA

It is better as a USB power but it can work also as a battery. but i suggest use it as a USB power

I did try doing just what you described because that sounded like a really nice feature if it would work. UNfortunately, no you cannot use a charged battery in the charger to power another device.

If you have a 12volt charger you can charge it in a car.. or you could bring extra batteries with you.

Yes Sarah, it can be used to charge any device that uses a USB plug, and because it's 2.1 amps it super fast, I love it so much I ordered several more, one for each car, you won't be sorry.

Yes. But if you want a faster results. I have Soldiers come up with different kind of gadgets to charge their cell phones, including a car battery charger. I bet you can all kind of things out there.

Yes, you can. It only needs a 12 volt power source; which your car battery is.

I think it can but I would have to read up on that. to be safe, look at chargers you know will charge Li-Po batteries because its better than messing something up.
