AGM Impedence And Heating When Charging
I let this sit cooking for over a month and no one offered to answer LY or PT's questions re: heating when left at a saturated voltage maximum left on for days and days. No one brought up the corre...

Exactly the opposite sir.
Like taking a standard transistor and comparing it to a MOSFET. The forward voltage drop vf of a MOSFET is minuscule. Hence a stunning reduction in heating.
Concorde was able to do this because of its sales of tens of millions of AGM batteries to the military and government. Just one computer single laser robot machine that I saw must have been priced at a cost that would drive a person to their knees. in the millions of dollars.
Uniformity and repeatability of plate paste preparation is an unforgiving manual operation. x number of minutes to formulate transport, apply and set. And the recipe has to be dead on. Paste application has to be absolutely perfect. The structural grids have to b'e acceptable. Concorde uses SILVER in its grids. Solely because no other alloy metal bonds paste to grid as well.
Battery metallurgy is quirky
Concords' formula allows for ion passage emphasizing inrush rather than discharge. That's why the Lifeline allows 5c inrush yet is surprisingly modest in its CCA ratings.
Expensive glass mat holds more electrolyte and allows more circulation. This is why they can use far thinner matting and with computer laser aligning plates it allows for plates that are 200% as thick.
Think Harbor Freight diagonal cutting pliers versus Wiha.
Nothing on the face of the earth can substitute for twice as thick plates.
"Yeah but the Lifeline is no different than cheaper AGM batteries when it comes to maintenance"
Very true just like parking by ear is not recommended for a Ford Pinto or a Rolls Royce.
