If the charger is the one I think you are buying then I'd say its not appropriate.

This is the sort you need to get:

It has the correct charge profile for SLA IE: Fast, Normal and Float with auto shutdown on full charge and reverse polarity protection.

Thanks for that link NRG, that site looks like the sort of thing I need for UK parts. I've done some more investigation though and it turns out scooter parts are the way forward for a 24v pack. I found all the parts I need from a UK site and have documented here:-

I'm not buying anything till the amp arrives though.. see if I like the thing first.
