could be that 20% is the minimum rate for almost any agm chemistry ?
That's what I am asking about. If so, there is nothing at all about it in my brand of AGM charging specs. ISTR it is part of some other brand's specs(forget which one--we had some threads on this a while back) and wondering if Mex has got that on his brain as though for all AGMs or not.
It matters to me because recharging at home on a long extension cord, I cannot use a high amp charger or it blows a breaker in the house. I can use a lower amp charger that does the proper charging voltage, but that is less than the 20% for amps. Since that all happens at home, I don't care that it takes longer to reach Full with the lower amps.
It can also matter if on solar, which is by nature low and slow but you can get the right voltages.
