These? Optimised for cycle life and capacity. Much like a gel battery. But pretty high impedance if the 500A max current is anything to go by. So OK for average user or someone with lighter chairs or no hills or someone with typical programming. Bit like MK gel in performance. And price.

The MK is max 400A. Mostly because its a gel and bubbles in the gel are permanant. Thats not the case with AGM its limited only by its voltage drop to a low level under load.
If you have a fixed grp24 volume then one of the three competing sides of the triangle is higher then the other two drop. So if its got great cycle life then it will lose capacity or will increase impedance. If great capacity then it loses out on the other two. So if cycle life AND capacity are good, then impedance must suffer.
Increased cycle capability for e.g is unsually achieved by weaker acid. So less damage in deep cycle use. But that means hat the battery has weaker high current capabiity due to higher resistance esp towards charge end. You cant get all 3 of the competing requirements all at once. The Odyssey for e.g has less cycle life. But better in internal resistance. Which to ME matters more due to programming and perforance. (torque, fast charge, etc)
