Charging a battery in reverse will make it heat up, possibly leak or
burst, and kill it dead. It won't repolarize it as the metals and acids
inside have their own properties that determine that the negative pole
will be negative, and positive on the positive one. They aren't
swappable. At least, not on a lead acid battery.
