    I have a 6v 5.0ah battery for my child's power car and I can't find the charger. I have a onyx 200 charger but don't know if it would work to charge it and if it does what do I need to set it on?

    It appears that an Duratrax Onyx 200 Battery Charger is used to recharge NiCad or NiMH battery packs. If your son's battery pack is a Sealed Lead-Acid battery, I would recommend using a "smart" car battery charger with a 6-volt, 1-1/2 amp or 2 amp, and AGM setting. If the battery has not been fully charged in the last three to six months, it might not take a charge and will need to be replaced. Batteries are perishable.
