How to boost charge AGM batteries in storage?
The manual for my Lifeline 100 Amp Hour Deep Cycle AGM 12 volt batteries says this: "While in storage, batteries should be boost charged every 90 days or when open circuit voltage drops to 12.5 vol...

OP also asked, "I don't understand this at all. What is a boost charge? What is a constant voltage charger? How do I measure when the charging current falls below 0.5 percent?"
So he is not familiar with charging profiles etc., but is asking.
Yes, he can use that 10 amp charger for the in storage routine as described.
He still needs to look after his Lifelines the rest of the time, so that 10 amp charger won't do that. IMO best to have a charger that can do it all, like the one I recommended. But first you have to know what to do with it, which the OP can learn, same as we all did starting out RVing.
