AGM versus Gel Cel Batteries

Last summer I installed new AGM batteries with a Link 2000 Inverter
Controller and a Freedom 15 Charger-Inverter.

The batteries are not holding a charge. The batteries have defintely
not been abused. They float at about 13.2 volts.

The manufacturer is MK Batteries. I have four 6 volt batteries in a
single bank of 400 Amp Hours.

The retailer claims I should equalize the batterries.

MK told me I would be better off with Gel's if I have a good charging sytem.

Any thoughts or recommendations???

Alan
