Can't reach a valid consensus without sufficient data.
You can make a rough test just with your fancy charger, though. Charge it until the charger says 100%.....or close to it. If it never goes above 90%, that's a good indication of a bad battery. If it does go to 95% or more, note the % charge, disconnect the charger and let it sit for 24 hours. When you reconnect the charger, it should not be read less than 5% below the previous charge level and should return to the first percentage withing a minute or two.
A healthy battery will NOT self-discharge any significant amount in 24 hours.
At this point, I think the consensus is: A trip to the Interstate store is in order.
