Gel batteries are not the best idea for a 5er. They require special charging that your converter won't be able to supply. AGM is a better choice, but they also require special care.
If you research RV converters on the internet, you will find that they are not the best way to maintain a battery.

I'm curious as to what care is needed for the AGM batteries. I find nothing about them that requires special care.
One of the reasons I went to this style battery was because I didn't want any gases in the same are as my inverter. When you use an inverter and place it in the same area as the batteries, escaping gas is a no-no. As such, wet cells of any kind should not be used in this type of environment.
