Battery Tender Plus is compatible with AGM and gel.

Yeah sorry, I should have mentioned that those were actual "Battery Tender" part numbers and they'll work with any style battery!

I just reviewed the specs and description of the BT+, it does not mention AGM compatibility, and the reviews on Amazon are atrocious.

OP, Thanks guys. Really appreciate this site and the immediate help, as always. I have ordered the CTEK (56-353) MULTI US 7002 and hope it's more than I need. Hard to believe there are so many choices and features (which will probably never be used) in the tiny world of battery tenders! ALL responses much appreciated. Great group of guy, as always.

Well, i have AGM batteries in all my vehicles and I've had the small charger almost 10 years and the 1.25A version 5 years now with ZERO issues! I don't use the 1.25A all the time but the .75A is plugged in 24/7... I'd take the validity of an Amazon review with a grain of salt! Look, I don't want to turn this into a pissing contest but I actually own them AND use them. Just my honest 2 cents but everyone is entitled to their own opinion.

Direct cut and paste from their product
description within "Additional Information" :

"Perfect for all lead-acid, flooded or sealed maintenance free batteries (AGM and gel cell)."

https://www.batterytender.com/Battery-TenderR-Plus

Have 2 and used them for years without issue.
I use the 24v version BatteryMinder on
aircraft.
