- There's something wrong with this picture. The battery voltage while being charged should rise to around 13.5 to 15.0 volts. My guess is that either your voltmeter is reading pretty badly low, or yo

- Auto batteries have really lousy charge efficiencies, plus most "10 amp" chargers will begin to taper the charge almost immediately, thus not delivering 10 amps to the battery. So, it takes 6-8 hours
