Lifeline have low internal resistance and the manual specifically warns to keep charging current above certain (very high) minimum level. All other batteries would have only a maximum charging current, but Lifeline is not like others.
FWIW and as you probably know ... all AGM batteries have low (relative to flooded) internal resistance. That's why at all charging voltages AGM batteries accept more charging current than flooded batteries do at the same voltages. Lifeline batteries may, or may not, have lower internal resistance than that of several other quality AGM batteries.
That's one of the reasons that I use AGM batteries. For our camping style and if I select just the right AGM batteries, they can be floated and fast enough charged using the same single fixed voltage (i.e. from our stock RV converter).
