Those optimas have pretty rugged specs on them, if they are the same as These.
In float though I do think the statement is right above that float would get temperature corrected down way into the 12's. In charge those optimas sure have some rugged specs like 125 degrees and significant blasts of charging as long as it is time controlled.
Once charged though, that is the question. Should volts after that really be more in the 12's, or does it not matter due to charge current being low (the Turnigy shows 10ma and under as 0). If charging finishes in the morning when it is cooler, maybe there is not much impact? I never know how to map the daily solar cycle into float specs properly.
