    I hope your battery is rechargeable. If yes then you need a step down transformer of 4V and .8amp use a brigde rectifier to convert to DC to charge your battery

    You should charge a battery with a slightly higher voltage than its rating. I'm guessing your lead acid battery has 2 cells? Around 5V should be alright.

    For the charge current.. 200mA should do (granted, it will take a while). Charging at 800mA is quite dangerous!

    But chargers are expected to deliver exact voltage rated in batteries and high-end chargers do so too..
