Williep is doing this right now (charging 8 volt batteries with a 12 v charger). No real way to say how long to charge. You measure voltage of battery as it is being charged, while monitoring for any excessive heat. You do not need to remove battery from pack. There are varying opinions on AMPs to set charger to and here is another thread which may be useful.
