AGM battery questions

is there a standard for charging and checking AGM as opposed to wet cell
in so far as

base trickle charger is 4.3A at 14.something
can I use a 5A or even 7A charger ? was told somewhere you shouldnt use over 4.3A

also on putting a maintainer, for simple coding (such as bimmercode) I don't think a 4.3 is man enough , is a 5,7 or even 10 ok (istap warns if your voltage is too low)

Also what should a standing voltage be on an AGM,
12.6 is lead, I'm reading again, should be higher,

sorry finally, not to be charged at under 0 deg's ?

again all info I googled up, before I came here

txs again

Relevant to all my other threads but I wanted to keep this very specfic
