AGM (absorbed glass mat) are not the same as GEL batteries, with AGM being far more common today than Gel. The common choices today are flooded lead acid that require watering, AGM which are maintenance free, and the newer lithium batteries that are expensive but light and can last much longer under the right care, but have temperature limitations that can affect performance when very cold.

Below is a description of differences between AGM and Gel batteries.
