You answered your own question. As long as the battery doesn't heat up on
a big charge you're probably OK.
** SLA or "gel cells" are prone to gassing when overcharged.
The pressure builds up inside until something gives - then you have bits
of battery and acid all over the place.
Voltage & current limited charging is the only safe and sensible way.

They have vents.
Which are NOT meant for overcharge relief.
I didn't say they were. I was speaking to the "bits of battery and acid"
prediction above.
I've seen the results of several car batteries exploding. Maybe your
head should be under the hood when one blows.
Why is everyone so rude around here?
Why are you here?
I am here for entertainment, mainly.
Ah Ha!
most of the substantive stuff is
over my head, but the lead-acid battery is on the FCC exams you take for
an advanced license,

Oohhh! I'm impressed. You took a *real* FCC license exam. Did you
pass?
plus I used to maintain a fleet of trucks at a
construction company, where I also serviced 2-way radios and 5 mW
surveyor lasers.
So you know it all. Great!
