Hello Kane
The BQ24450 is a linear charger and will work well with smaller battery, lower charge currents and voltage. At higher charge currents and voltages the power dissipation on the pass transistor becomes excessive.
A better solution would be a switching charger such as BQ24650 it can be adapted for Lead acid Batteries. See application note SLVA437A.
