Default Charging battery on parallel plug?

So if a parallel drains both batteries equally wouldn't it then in theory charge two batteries (double the time of course) if plugged into a charger? I'm not gonna be the first to test it because i have bad luck when it comes to electricity. Just a stupid question but i cant be the only one thinking this.

Are you asking about NiXX type batteries or lipos?

Lipos can be charged and balanced in parallel, but NiXX (NiMh or NiCd) should never be charged in parallel.
