The charger has no way of knowing the state of charge of your battery. It can really only look at voltage which doesn't mean much unless it's been at rest for at least 24 hours. I'm guessing you can't program the charger for the battery size so it doesn't really know what charge rate it's giving the battery. The "so called" state of charge is largely marketing.
If you got 3 days of boondocking out of a set of batteries I'd say that's not too bad depending on your usage patterns. Batteries that are 5+ years old are nearing the end of their useful life. Depending on how well they were cared for they might be done but since you got 3 days I'd say they are decent yet.
