Yes, it’s true that some RV chargers may not be ideal for AGM batteries, especially if they’re not designed for it. This can happen when you’re connected to 110V, but it can also occur while driving if the truck’s alternator doesn’t provide the right charging voltage. Check your RV charger specs to see if it’s compatible with AGM batteries.
For charging, it’s best to recharge your AGM battery before it drops below 50%. One solution is to invest in a smart charger specifically designed for AGMs. These chargers can adjust the voltage and current appropriately, ensuring a safe and effective charge. Additionally, using a battery monitor can help you keep track of your battery’s charge level so you can recharge in time.
