Mixing AGM and Flooded in a Bank ?
I have had no issues with my mixed bank of flooded 6v and 12s. I have a pair of Interstate GC2-XHDs, a pair of Exide 135s, and two Trojan T-1275s all banked. They are wired as two big 12s (4-6s + 2...

My Northstar AGM has a resting full charge voltage of 13.06v. I would not want to leave it in parallel with a flooded battery whose OCV is 12.7X
It is now in the 460# deep cycle range, but I can now tell it is on the decline as absorption time until amps taper to 0.4 has increased marketedly, and it achieves absorption voltage faster with fewer amps.
However voltage held during overnight loads down to 50% is still excellent, unless there is more than 4 or 5 deep cycles without a full recharge, or low and slow solar only recharges devoid of high amperages.
It still cranks my engine quickly, even when depleted 55 of its originl 90AH capacity.
