There should be no problem using an AGM with the Xantrex in flooded mode. Be sure to get a starting or dual purpose AGM for that role to maximize current. Actually charging algorithms for Wet cells are 1/10 of a volt higher than for AGM's in Xantrex's algorithms. For the minor amounts of amp-hours to be replaced this should be inconsequential. Suggest you remove the AGM from the circuit however when you go into EQ mode on your 6V's or it will be toast.
