Battery Trojan vs. LIfeline
Ok, i've done my research, measured my area for a 2-battery bank and am looking at these two possibilities: 1) Lifeline - GPL-6CT RV - 2 6-volt AGM batteries - $440.99 + s/h - Total = $1,023.94 ...

FLOODED group 34. I'm using this as a example of what a battery failure costs but it covers any essential item.
Ahh Man!
GOOGLE AGM+Condition and you'll get 150,000 hits
Oooooooo look! One is by OPTIMA or maybe more, I have better things to do than sort through a hundred fifty thousand hits.
Mexico is already making a huge percentage of batteries for the US market. Perhaps thirty percent as a guess.
Mention AGM and EQUALIZATION in the same sentence on a telephone call to a battery manufacturer and they will panic. Another uniformed customer ready to crispy-critter one of their batteries still under warranty. Equalization is for flooded batteries, conditioning is for AGM. I have been conditioning AGM batteries for fifteen years. The procedure for any and all is extremely similar to the Lifeline formula.
How in the world senor almot did you decide to purchase Chinese agm batteries? They have at best a spotty record with consumers.
I may be over-the-hill physically but I can assure you I am not yet round-the-bend. Conditioning an AGM battery, ALL AND EVERY TYPE OF AGM is more similar than it is different. Reading specifications off some add then asssssuming and constuing limitless deductions from vague information is not the ideal way to learn about batteries. But arming conversation with such fantasy is a great way to support an argument for it's own sake. Problem is the argument isn't worth one red cent. It merely serves to attempt to confuse third parties who yearn to learn.
