I hate to necro an old thread, but since this is the only information regarding the SS battery type that pops up in a google search; I have to add that my SS has an AGM battery from the factory.
Where did this info come from: Quote:

Is the AGM battery compatable with the standard Battery Tender trickle charger?

Google shows:
Advantages Spill-proof through acid encapsulation in matting technology High specific power, low internal resistance, responsive to load Up to 5 times faster charge than with flooded technology Better cycle life than with flooded systems Water retention (oxygen and hydrogen combine to produce water) Vibration resistance due to sandwich construction Stands up well to cold temperature Less prone to sulfation if not regularly topping charged Has less electrolyte and lead than the flooded version |

Good to know, was trying to figure it out since I have a fancy Optima charger. It has several modes for several battery types. I gave up and just let it default to the safe for all maintenance/trickle phase. :-/
If it is an AGM, I can chose that from the menu. Anyone know if the 1LE SS is the same baytery as the SS? 2018? We sure they are AGM since others have said lead acid? |

Optima is launching new AGM group H6 and H7 batteries this spring.
Camaro uses AGM H6 OR MT7-48 H6  https://www.interstatebatteries.com/products/mt7-48/h6

You think those battery prices are bad, look at the prices for marine batteries.

Both of my camaro's have agm batteries for sure, ss and zl1 but in another post some people said they had standard acid filled batteries. I don't remember the post but I kind of thought that might have been the reason for some of them having slow starting problems which turned out to be wrong.
