Is it an AGM battery

I think so. Since it is a YTX type and I never had to add water to the three batteries this bike has had. Although AGM are totally maintenance free and I did originally had to put acid in it, I am not sure it would be classified as that type of battery.

I didn't know either, but since my grandauther's vehicle was on storage for 5 years. I just assumed it was the battery and ordered a new one. Now it works perfect and my grandson is using it daily.

I haven't used it with an AGM battery, but in my experience the charge topping off followed by float charging sounds perfectly normal. I don't know what the tripping sound is. Maybe I just haven't heard it?

Most any good charger will work. Check to see if it has a special setting for AGM batteries. If so use it.

I would have to look it up in the manual. Some deep cycle batteries like AGM's require a higher than standard voltage for charging. Perhaps you can download the Owners Manual pdf online.

I have used to to charge AGM caterpillar batteries but it doesn't have the circuitry designed to charge a fully depleted AGM.

Yes it is. In fact no matter what type of vehicle even if like me you have upgraded to multiple AGM batteries this charger will work for you. It is simple to use (one button operation) and the microprocessor inside the charger ensures you don't overcharge your battery(s) even if its hooked up for months at a time.

No, but make sure your charger charges this AGM battery with the proper voltage. AGM batteries require voltage of slightly over 14 volts

It was an ELK brand battery. As for date of the battery, it was new and within the date range that I would expect. It is working (has been for several months) fine with no issues at all.

It will work. AGM batteries can be used in any orientation, that is one of their main advantages.

most battery chargers would charge this sort of battery. to make sure of this, check your charger and see if it will charge an agm battery, if so, your good. secondly, yes you could use a jump box or cables if needed.

Don't use a car battery, get an AGM battery. They are more expensive but worth it.

My best answer is to check with the battery mfr. with the specs of the Battery Minder. I have another one for 2 - Lifeline 27T 100 AH AGMs in my camper and Lifeline had no objection. AGM batteries don't have need to destratify (my word...I forget the proper term) the acid, so there might be cheaper units without that feature designed for AGMs. Incidentally, my Vette will be 10 yrs. old in a few weeks..original battery.

It is an aftermarket battery and is NOT made by APC, it was the exact proper voltage and amperage as my old battery and fit perfectly. I have had no issues. It is also way cheaper

The unit can charge AGM type batteries, but I do not know if it can charge the yellowtop battery. I bought it to use with an AGM battery I expected to buy as a replacement for an aging car battery. When I received the Ctek MUS 4.3 charger, I used it to recondition the old battery. I will not need to get the AGM battery for a while.

I curently have an AGM battery in my car and it works amazing. it is mounted on my garage wall and I plug it in to the 12v port of the car. Great for a car that is parked alot of the time or driven daily.

You should read the Battery specs. AGM batteries if charged at 12 volt DC only. NOT 12.5 to 14.5 or more, like most chargers. AGM's will take an Unlimited amp charge at 12 volts . Its the charging voltage thats critical with AGM's Check the spec's at Optima's website or any info about AGM's. I have the 1500 model and it charges at 12 volts only. Works fine on any battery AGM ATV's and big Sears Platium Odessy AGM's and brings back to life old trailer lead acid's.
