AGM battery question

#1 Post by zoom650 » Thu Jul 14, 2016 7:23 am

I've got my boat home in between trips and thought I'd charge the AGM batteries. Last night, the power blinked.

I left #2 battery charging on the AGM setting at the slow rate. When the power blinked, the charger defaulted back to a regular battery charging at the very slow rate and it charged all night.

The battery is sucking juice off the correct mode now. Should I have any concern about the battery health as a result?

Thanks!
