Yes, when recharging sealed lead-acid AGM or Gel-type batteries it is best to choose a charger with a selection specifically for them. These batteries can be overcharged by some chargers that are used for regular or liquid electrolyte batteries. Some of the liquid electrolyte chargers have their internal voltage regulation set too high for AGM or Gel battery.
