Chris ... you're right ... I missed it when I earlier scanned the Full River list of products. That does appear to be the same as the Rolls-Surrette model I linked to.
I can't figure our what group size it's trying to be. I believe it's a bit larger than Group 31. But probably a lot of RV battery compartments that will hold a single or two Group 31's just might also hold one or two of these. Two of them for total of 290 amp hours sure would be a great battery bank for smaller RVs.
What I most like about it (besides the long R-S warranty) is it's recommended float voltage of 13.6-13.8 volts, so one wouldn't absolutely have to get rid of their single stage converter in order to use it without ruining it - if the longer charge times or partial charging could be tolerated per one's camping style.
We hit and run camp a lot, so the alternator brings our AGM batteries (with the same float range) up to 100% between many camping spots. Then when we get back home, we just float with the converter month after month to keep them at 100% SOC.
