Opinion Please on These AGMs for an RV
Somebody Up-Island is selling these type of batteries: http://www.eastpennmanufacturing.com/wp-content/uploads/Unigy-I-IO-Manual-0902.pdf EDIT---What do they mean by saying the Float voltage is ...

'stationary' .. I think that is for the fact they are designed to be rack mounted
the foot print is not a vehicle designed format
internal construction should be just as rugged as all other TelCom batteries
that 12.9v on the meter looks good
grab (4) that read the same voltage
do a load check, pay the man take them home, do a recharge
seriously if I was shopping batteries, and they checked out, i would get several and have NO Qualms about using them
i say (4) instead of (2), because it makes that big inverter draw easier on the batteries, lessens the 'Perkuit" effect
i did 50-90 with my first set of AGM, they lasted 5yrs full time off grid use,( that could give 20yrs partial use ?
on this set i'm doing more full recharge almost every day, at least during a/c weather
so far in over one year of use , IIRC they have not been below 68%
most of the time morning LOW is about 80%, depends on how late i stay up, and if we need the fans overnight
