Second, I thought the batteries should last longer. We only used the battery to run 1 light during the day (we were in the forest).
No way anyone here can answer why your battery reserve doesn't last longer when you haven't provided
any details at all about your battery (or batteries) nor exactly what you're running and for how long. And you're not running just 1 light, at the very least your propane / CO detector is running 24/7 as long as the battery is connected. Since you were dry camping you presumably were using the fridge and if it's a DSI fridge then it would be drawing power as well. Use the water pump? - there's more draw down on the battery. You need to provide more specific details.
