It's easy to abuse the heck out of a battery, draining it low consistently and never getting it a real charge - my wife used to do that till I finally got her a battery tender... ~2-3mi round trip at a time, no more... killed a battery that way.


Checked 3 hours later (ignition off). I measured 12.44v.

I am not sure if a drop from 12.54 to 12.44 within 3 hours is a huge drop?
