For the chassis battery you want the highest number of CCAs as possible.
If you were testing battery voltage while on shore power with the batteries connected you were reading the converter output not battery voltage. Disconnect the batteries, wait about an hour then test them to find actual battery voltages or remove & take to your local auto supply store & have them load tested.
Any brands/models of non Hybrid AGMs you know that are good?
I disconnected shorepower before I run the test...
