Changing battery Bank of 4 batteries--AGM?
I have 4 size 30 deep cycle flooded batteries that are about 6 years old. I want to change them before a big trip I'll be making this summer. I run a residential frig. I saw Cabelas has AGM marine bat...

More information is needed.
It sounds like these are NOT AGMs.
If not, you should NOT use the AGM setting on a charger as the voltages are slightly higher and likely will cause excess gassing.
Also your post implies that they are not charged now.
If they have been sitting around for a year or more without any charging, it's likely that they are stone cold dead now and damaged beyond repair.
You need to read the whole thing-

Anyone have thoughts on suitability of Cabelas AGM for my RV? I have a Xantrex SW2000 inverter/charger that has a AGM setting.
