Richard,
I don't know if those chargers will work with AGM batteries. All of mine have been wet-cells. Better do some more research.

They are a little small for that application, but I wanted something that my 900W Honda generator could handle. I have tried motoring while running the Honda and they didn't seem to mind, though I only ran for a half hour or so. I'll do more extensive testing of that mode next summer.

The batteries were flooded lead (not sealed) and I rarely had to add any water. I don't know if that means anything other than the charger was not boiling the batteries :-).
