To compound the above concerns, the voltage character-istics of a lead-acid cell have a pronounced negative temperature dependence, approximately -4.0mV/°C per 2V cell. In other words, a charger that works perfectly at 25°C may not maintain or provide a full charge at 0°C and conversely may drastically over-charge a battery at +50°C.
The charging parameters for lead-acid and LiFePO4 batteries are shown as an example. For a 60 Ah automotive lead-acid battery, and a 20 Ah LiFePO4 cell, the charging parameters are given. For smaller batteries, the current shunt and amplification should be sized accordingly. For instance, a small 1800 mAh 18650-type cell has an end-of-charge current of just 55 mA.
Abstract. The traditional methods of charging lead-acid batteries depend on stabilizing the current or voltage through simple electronic circuits, which causes the shorten the life of the batteries due to damage to the electrodes or the hot and dry batteries.
A high-power CC/CV battery charger uses several variables to monitor the battery parameters. The charging state of the battery charger (battery_state) is one of them, and some variables are available to the main program loop.
The LT8491 implements a CCCV charging algorithm. The idealized charging profile is shown in Figure 7 and assumes constant temperature and adequate input power. As battery temperature and illumination conditions on the panel change, the actual current and voltage seen by the battery will vary accordingly.
Related Data Sheet Sections: Battery Charging Algorithm, Done Charging By setting these bits to a non-zero value, the charger will wait for a delay time after reaching the done charging stage (see Figure 8), then automatically restart the charging in Stage 0. These bits set the delay in 1⁄2 hour steps between 0.5 to 31.5 hours.

Charging a lead acid battery : r/batteries
It''s just not optimal to use a constant current charge because its too slow. A battery should be able to be recharged in a 8 hour period from 20%. If you''re slower than that the sulphate can crystalize and make it really hard to fully recharge the battery again, and cause a higher resistance battery.

Lead-Acid Battery Charger Implementation Using PIC14C000
The typical method of charging lead-acid batteries is with a constant voltage, current-limited source. That method allows a high initial charge current that tapers off until the battery reaches full charge. This design uses a constant current, allowing the volt-age to rise until the battery voltage reaches a full charge.
