We establish a universal scaling law for collective charging of quantum batteries, independent of microscopic details. We prove that the ergotropy-to-energy ratio approaches unity at least as fast as $\sim N^{-1}$ with the number of batteries $N$, implying generic asymptotic freedom. We further show how the universal $1/N$ scaling can be overcome: when the battery state becomes asymptotically pure, the convergence can be substantially faster, including $\sim N^{-b}$ with $b>1$ and even exponential scaling in $N^2$. Rigorous finite-$N$ upper and lower bounds on the ergotropy-to-energy ratio are further derived, providing nonasymptotic guarantees for the universal $1/N$ scaling.
