how long to charge with battery tender?

I don't know as I don't have a battery tender. If I recall, once I put the fluid in to activate it, it hardly any time at all to crank after it being on a standard battery charger.

It takes sometimes up to three short charge sessions to get a new battery up to snuff. Watch the temp of the battery case and if it gets warm-hot stop charging it and let it sit for a while. It needs to sit for at least an hour after you pour in the acid, tip the battery slightly to get all the bubbles out. Don't press down the battery seal (caps) until you get the battery to accept the initial charge(s). Then you should be good to go. Don't exceed 1 1/2 amps.

Any 12 volt system can use the trickle charger. It takes 12 to 18 hours to fully charge. The charger can be left on attached to the terminals to keep the battery fully charged. This assumes the battery is not bad.

Although I have only had to use it a couple times I would say it takes around 30 minutes to charge a dead battery.

The battery will not take a charge.Hook it up to a battery you know to be good.You should get a blinking green then a change to solid green.If the tender does the same red to green then the tender is probably faulty.

Stock battery: ~4min if run flat out. Can get a larger battery, 2200mah, runs about 10min. Charger that comes with the boat is very low amperage, about 1.5 hours to charge stock battery, other chargers available that can charge faster.

On the manual, it states you should charge it for 4-6 hours, but I was able to get full charge within 3 hours.

It really depends on the battery size. But you can usually get a lipo charged within an hour.

Yes, I use a battery tender etc a small charger that will not over charge any battery .

A fully discharged battery will take 3-5 hours to fully charge. CAUTION! Recharging the battery pack for more than 5 hours can damage the battery cells. Place the battery pack on a dry, fireproof surface in a room that is between 50-104 degrees Fahrenheit. If re-charging a newly spent battery pack, allow to cool completely before charging. More information can be found on page 7 of the user manual which you can read from this link: http://manuals.harborfreight.com/manuals/68000-68999/68239.pdf

Make sure you charge the battery for at least 18 hours using the enclosed Power Wheels® 12 volt charger before operating your vehicle for the first time. Charge the battery for at least 14 hours after each use of the vehicle. Never charge the battery longer than 30 hours.

Depends on how long you have had the battery and if you have damaged it or properly installed it when building your model. However I would recommend charging it for 30minutes if its low on charge and an 1 or more if you almost depleted it. However please charge the battery in a lipo lithium bag, because in some cases during charging if overcharged or any thing goes wrong within the battery cells the battery itself may overheat and catch fire. Please never charge it without supervision always monitor it and unplug it if not in use.

It might, depending upon battery size and how discharged it is - if it is totally discharged, nothing may bring it back, but if it is just really low, you might try to pre-charge it with a regular charger and then maintan it ( which is what the Tender is for) wihe the Battery Tender.Remember, it is only 1.25 amp and I would think you might need at least 2 amps for charging very weak batteries

I usually plug it in overnight. I think it takes a few hours to charge. It depends on how low the battery is when you charge it.

My battery lasted about for over 14 hours (staining deck). It recharges using a standard ridgid 18v lithium charger.

I have no idea what a battery tender is. I have owned the CTEK for about 2 years now, and it does a wonderful job of de-energizing a battery and returning the battery to a full charge. It also seems to remove any memory cycle built into my deep cycle boat batteries.

That depends somewhat on the charger. I have a very compact Energizer charger (#CHDC8) that will charge 4 AA's in about two hours. Some quick chargers are faster, but I've been told fast charging is not good for the batteries.

Deltran Battery Tender® makes several chargers with more power if you are needing a faster recharge time. All Battery Tender's® are designed to fully charge a battery and then maintain the full charge. A Battery Tender Junior has an output of 750mA and will take nearly 6 times longer to recharge the same battery as a Battery Tender 5 Amp charger (part#022-0186G). If you are needing to recharge quickly or use on a larger battery then you should go with the 5 Amp unit.
