Flooded Batteries on Float
It's been mentioned that flooded batteries just keep accepting amps seemingly forever whereas AGM's will stop accepting amps when they're full. Don't know if it's true or not but I can say that my bat...

Right you guys are ... myself and a lot of folks don't have enough time to use their RV, let alone test it. I know how to test electrical stuff - that was my career - so I've probably had enough of it. It's time now to use the electrical stuff.
FWIW and BTW, how have I proved Mex's point? Perhaps, just perhaps, my RV batteries are indeed still at, or close to, full capacity - per my non-instrumented description above on how they perform at the present.
FWIW, I wonder what percentage of initial capacity was left in good old phone company batteries after 10-20 years on switching station standby duty? I'll bet a lot or all - assuming their electrolyte levels were properly maintained.
And Mena .... I'll bet that your RV batteries will enjoy a long and powerful life in light of how well you seem to be taking care of them. ;)
