Ok I compare that to the Interstate SRM-29 "Deep Cycle/Starting" batt.
US31DCXC- 130AH, 675 CCA, 225 RC, 13 x 6 3/4 x 10
Int SRM29- 115? AH 675CCA, 210 RC, 13 x 6 3/4 x 9 3/4
It looks to me like you will have a hard time with that same as I did with my old 27DCs for keeping the SG up while doing deep cycling. It can be done but PITA.
It will be easier on solar where it doesn't get down so far in SOC and gets to a higher SOC on each cycle. Doing several 50-90s in a row puts the SG right in the red after a couple 50-90s even after getting back to 90.
Maybe make that one the engine batt so you can get at it easy and make the AGM the one in the hard to get at compartment?
