I didn't get any owners manual when I got my generic AGM battery from a co-worker that buys them by the case, so I don't know if this is applicable to the batteries from Gruber, but with the Odyssey battery, they recommend to charge it at 7-10 amps, I did this with my Odyssey, and it only took about 2 hours to charge it up.

Don't know if you want to try this method or not.

I would think that all AGM batteries would charge the same so I'll give it a couple hours of "elevated juice" and see what happens.  Like, I don't have anything to loose...
