It is depend on your capacitance (in Ah unit ampere per hour) of your car batteries and the charger supply power to the batteries (A in ampere). Different type of charger supply different current so read your charger menu for help. The capacitance of your batteries normally label on the batteries in Ah. For example, my car batteries capacitance is 45Ah and my charger supply 2.5A so take 45 Ah divide by 2.5A will be 18 hours. That means you need 18 hours to charging up a complete dead batteries.

Don't overcharge the batteries because it will damages your batteries and keep the nut open for the batteries in order to avoid explosion for the batteries that cause too much pressure inside the batteries.
