Car Battery: When is a Car Battery Complete Toast vs. When Can it be Re-Charged?
Standard car battery (PowerVolt – an Interstate Brand). Not deep cycling or gel or anything other than a run of the mill car battery. It has water in cells.
Headlights were left on – for like weeks. I suppose they weren’t putting out any light after some number of hours, but the lights were left in the on position.
It is used for off-road activities, and had been left sitting with the lights ‘on’ for at least a week.
It can be jump-started, though.
The battery is about a year old – if that makes any difference.
The question:
(I know there are no absolutes, but there are 99% likelihoods).
Is the battery most like completely dead / history / toast / past-tense or might it be re-chargeable ?
What are the odds of each, in your estimation ?
Thanks.
The battery should charge back up. It will take more than a trickle charger to do it though.
