It depends on how far the battery is discharged. If its a lead acid battery, check it with a hydrometer, each cell should read about 1.260 to 1.275 at full charge. Its an optima, or other sealed type battery,check it with a volt meter and it should read about 6.5 to 6.8 at full charge.If it is completely discharged, it will be difficult if not impossible to bring it back to full charge. In any event, it may take several hours.
