2008 Ford Escape Hybrid and Schumacher Charger

Hi

It will be a Schumacher battery charger.The one at Walmart that is for 6 and 12 volt batteries.Will post link to it.

It is 8 or 10 amp one.Digital LED readout not swing needle.

Will that fully charge underhood battery and main battery(one for electric motor)?

We can leave it on there as long as it takes.No hurry here.

Car has been sitting.Non driven for months.Maybe a year.

Have a nice day

Bob

It will be more than enough for the 12v battery that runs accessories and starts the engine but I have no idea for the electric motor battery.

Make sure it is a float charger that will automatically stop charging when the battery is fully charged or you run the risk of overcharging and ruining your 12v battery.
