Insure your charging option(s) have AGM programing profile(s) and temperature sensing compensation.
"Robust" is a relative term. Difficulty of maintenance, off gassing, and spill avoidance (rollovers) are the primary attributes of AGM.

You bring up charging issues that are not addressed in my manual. The next question is what type of charger did Thor put into my 2024 ACE? My CW "Service Rrp" was as you might expect zero help with that question. Seriously doubt that the charger has AGM programming profiles and Temp sensing.
The bottom line question is will whatever type of charger is OEM, will it work with AGM batteries? Doesn't have to be optimal but work well enough. We do not operate in extreme temperatures.
