    Default AGM Battery


    Can I charge an AGM battery with a standard 2 amp trickle charger.

    A standard charger will charge a AGM battery. Now a 2 amp is might be or might not be enough depending on size of battery. 2 amps is enough because they do not require as much amperage as a flooded cell battery. Now time of charge is going to be dependent on size of battery and state of discharge.

    You need to be careful with AGMs. If the charger voltage is too high you can permanently damage the battery
