My battery in my car is dead. What will happen if I do a trickle charge for 2 hours tommorow before work?

Not enough time.

Well, I'd say the wisest thing to do would be to wake up as early as you can and get the charger on the battery as soon as you can. Hopefully, that'll give the battery enough time to charge enough to work again It won't make the battery like new or anything, but it should at least hold a charge long enough for you to get to work, and maybe to an auto parts store where you can have the battery tested and replaced, if needed. There's no point in having a bad battery in your car, especially with winter on the way.

Additionally, I'd consider alternate means of transportation to and from work. Maybe a friend or relative, or public transportation, if practical, just in case the battery doesn't charge, there's not enough time, or it's a different problem all together.

Two hours on a trickle charge isn't enough

You need about six hours on a trickle charge, two hours on a fast charge.

I say take the battery out of the vehicle and move it to the charger.

The autostores like Autozone, Pepboys, etc will test for free whether

its the battery or if the alternator is going bad and not sending it enough juice.

Try getting up before noon, for starters.

If your battery is dead because you left the lights on, get up and plug it in the minute your parents leave to charge it.

If your battery is dead because it is old, get a new one.

Get a better charger as well. I have a portable power supply that can inflate tires, jump start cars, test the alternator, and run AC plugs and car lighter plugs. It cost $98.

If you have a trickle charger, put it on the end of an extention cord and let it charge all night but you better look into buying a battery before cold weather sets in or your really going to have trouble this winter.

Your battery probably isn't bad. More than likely YOUR vehicle has a parasitic draw that ran it down, or your alternator is not working properly, thus, when you take it to Wal-Mart, they will charge it, load test it, and if its good, then you have no case to have it replaced. Even a new battery would run down again, find what is wrong in your car that made it go down. Maybe you left the lights on.

If your battery is only 3 yrs old, the problem may not be the battery. Have them test the battery. You may have an alternator problem which will not charge the battery.

buy a new one it will leave you stranded
