Hello,

Yes, the battery can be charged using any 12V automotive battery charger.

Here is a helpful guide:

One thing to keep in mind. A car battery gets charged by the alternator as the vehicle drives. If the battery is bad or if there is a fault within the charging system of the vehicle, like bad wiring or a malfunctioning alternator, the battery will not take a charge.

So, if the battery seems weak you will need to test and make sure if it is good.

Please let me know if you have any questions.
Thank you.
