+==== AGM myths ====
+I blame this stuff on one crappy B.U. article.
+  * belief that AGM are lighter than flooded (they are not, as an apples-to-apples comparison of their weights shows.)
+  * belief that AGM have higher capacities (they actually have slightly less capacity for a given size)
+  * belief that AGM can be discharged to 80% instead of 50% like flooded (they both can be discharged to any given [[electrical:depth_of_discharge|DoD]] and cycles will [[http://bdp.mousetrap.net/index.php/2020/07/19/backchannel-agm-80-depth-of-discharged/|degrade in the same way]])
