Just get some deep cycle batteries.
Where in the world did you get that idea?
AGM is famous for safely accepting tremendous charging current safely. Except for tele communications special purpose batteries.
My single regular group 31 Lifeline chomps 101 amperes without even getting warm. CHARGING is done in a controlled manner.
Heat is the issue. Trojan says specifically do NOT let the temp exceed 122F when charging.
Off the top of my head, I know of no AGM battery charger that monitors battery temperature.
