Recently purchased a cap; got the setup ready for it to be installed; attempted to charge it on a 12V charger...yes everything was connected correctly...but it seemed like it was taking a long time; if someone could estimate how long a charge should/will take please notify me...

it can take a couple minutes to charge a cap through its card for 1Fd.

If you use a 12V light bulb, it'll take around 30 sec. And you will know when it's fully charged cause the light will go out.

ok, as far as i can tell so far, everything is going correctly. i found out what my problem was, the 12v charger i was using to attempt to charge it was going EXTREMELY SLOW...i switched to a different charger and it was done within a few seconds, thanks for your input though :|
