Default Flooded vs AGM vs Gel Batteries

I am a somewhat familiar with batteries – but am curious about the real differences between flooded lead acid, AGM and Gel batteries. I have heard mixed thoughts on each. Does anyone have any real experience using all 3, or 2 of these? I’m trying to understand if the maintenance free aspect of the AGM and Gel batteries are worth the extra cost over flooded. I have also heard different opinions regarding how well/deep the AGM and Gel batteries cycle compared to flooded. Any insight/experience would be great!

Welcome to BGW bg101.

No real experiance with either but what I've read on gels is that their more for when the battery is put in extreme role without loss of electrolite with the same performance as a flooded battery. Was developed more for marine use in sailboats that are used on the high seas for safety.
