Note: It's recommended to refer to the manufacturer's instructions for the specific charger and battery type for accurate charging durations and guidelines. Overcharging can damage the battery's lifespan. For optimal battery life, avoid deep discharging below 10.5 volts and regularly check the battery fluid levels if it's a wet-cell lead-acid battery.
