Never said anything about Gels....only agm's

Easy boy....These are Centennial AGM batteries and the spec
sheet says they can be bulk charged at 14.4 volts and float charged up to
14.1 volts. Now that just happens to be what my inverter is set at
(default settings) for lead acid batteries....

So I called the local wholesaler and checked to see if this really
would work. And yep, with their batteries, it will. They recommend a
amp charge rate at 25% of total amperage. My charging rate is well
below that.
