Take a 100 ah batt at 50%, what is the difference in acceptance at 14.4v vs 13.6v, 50%? see question one, is 13.6 enough to FULLY recharge.

Figure 3-7 shows that acceptance rate of 20 amps at 50% SOC at 13.6v turns into 30 amps at 50% SOC at 14.4v
My AGM spec says to recharge at 14.9ish and Float at 13.7ish, so I think they are saying it won't do much good to recharge at 13.7ish--do it at their specified 14.9ish.
LY has shown that you should leave the 14.x on till the batts are full before dropping to your Float voltage.
