I am a PS subscriber, and I bought AGM's for my boat after researching their articles on house batteries. I am curious what context that quote was taken from too...

I have access issues with the tops of my batteries and a lack of space for the batteries, golf carts wouldn't work in my install and the AGM's have been flawless so far. I doubt I have discharged below 70% of capacity (30% draw down) and they charge right back promptly with my 100 amp alternator. I never have access to shore power so it's recharge off the alternator or fire up a generator, which never happens either.
