i had someone come in yelling and screaming that his car charger didn't work. i plugged it in and it charged his battery fine; i said his battery was really dead so it's gonna take a little bit before he can make a call.

It doesn't use the battery itself, or it would work while the car was off. It uses the power produced by the alternator when the car is running.
