Expert Reply:

If the car battery is merely discharged but otherwise in good repair, using a NOCO charger will not damage it. NOCO chargers will not over charge a battery, once full charge is reached, the charger switches to pulse maintenance, which maintains the charge rather than applying full power to the battery.

A charger like the NOCO Genius Battery Charger and Maintainer # 329-GENIUS5 would be best suited for a car battery. The charger is suitable for deep-cycle batteries.
