I was stunned to learn that Battery Minders are no longer recommended for use on Odyssey, Concord, or any other AGM or "Gel Cell" battery as they shorten the life and performance of the battery.
Several times I have recommended these maintenance chargers (on VAF) for our AGM batteries because I specifically called the company and talked to the engineers about these chargers and aircraft AGM batteries. Now they are back tracking and finally figured out their chargers are NOT COMPATIBLE with AGM batteries. Of course they have new chargers to sell, but I would certainly not buy another one from Battery Minder.

My sincere apologies if anyone took my advice and purchased these chargers for their aircraft.
