Hi Lynn,
No, you can not do that. The most you should be about 8 volts DC. If you are
stuck on the top of a mountain (that has internet) and need to do some thing
you can try this...no guarantees.
Disconnect the 6 volt battery from the car. Put the (-) battery lead on the
battery. Now you want to wire in a head light, in series, with the (+) cable
of the battery charger. Going to one side of the light and a wire from the
other side of the light to the battery. This MAY be enough resistance to
drop the voltage down to a safe level.

Subject: [DeTomaso] Battery charging
I know someone out there will know the answer to this question.
I have a 1929 model A pickup with a 6 volt electrical system. The battery
is dead and I am away from my shop where I have a 6 volt battery charger.
My question is: can I use a 12 volt trickle charger to charge a 6 volt
battery?
Thanks in advance, Lynn
