Re: Converter
The charging voltage settings for an AGM/Gel battery are lower than a wet cell deep cycle battery, a standard convertor will work but be aware that the higher charging voltage may/will shorten the life of a gel battery. Some convertors and charge controllers have adjustable charge setpoints in order to accommodate the differrent battery types. I have a few links to some reading material, but I'm out of pocket working and won't be home until Saturday, I'll post links when I get home. I really like the AGM batteries and we use many many of these in the Telecom industry, less maintenance and typically a smoother discharge curve.
