There is overwhelming evidence to support Concorde's claim. They flat tell people "Do not use our AGM nor any other AGM battery for risky recharge profiles" And I am a firm believer in saturated acceptance charging for AGM batteries. Too manmy AGM batteries have onionskin plates, and I do not like the idea of pushing saturated charging rate through them for too long of time. An IR thermometer IMO is a must during warm weather if you want that last 10% of lifespan in 90F weather. But 99% of AGM battery failures due to battery charging weigh on the insufficient charging side not on excessive temperature buildup.
Re: You'll never see a challenge when a battery fails 3 months after the warranty expires. But let a battery that pops the recombinant vents six months before the battery warranty lapse will end up in court.
Motto. "Our charger's reputation will not be damaged but the company if found of overcharge, guilty, it is legal and publicity suicide" At risk may be 6-9 years of usable lifespan when things are done right. You may be satisfied to achieve warranty lifespan. I am not. The underchargers are nailing a board over their ass versus achieving rational lifespan.
