I'll repeat, get a smart multistage charger. With the setup I have now, mentioned above, the AGMs quickly get charged (in 3 hrs) to 90% at 14.4V in boost mode, then the charger switches to 13.6V to charge the rest of the way to 100%. After that the charger switches to a float charge of 13.2V. There is a monitor LED on the Charge Wizard Pendant that shows the charge mode and I can see it does make it to the float mode indicating the charge is 100%.
Since the AGMs charge to 12.9V, the Battery Monitor that is part of the panel with the other monitors (fresh water, gray, black tank levels) indicated Full for many hours after fully charging while dry camping.
Without the smart charging the charger originally put out a straight 13.6V.

Thanks for this. It is basically the information I have been seeking and will take me a long way towards getting my system complete.
