Hi Mitch,
Disconnect the battery (no charge, no loads) for 24 hours, then measure the voltage. If it is not 12.6 or better then it may be replacement time.
The battery has been sitting on the garage floor for 45 minutes or so now. It just measured 12.4V. Is that good, or bad, or too early to tell?
The battery is toast. if your 12.4 voltage reading is correct.
Your PD charger should still go into float mode, even w/ the parasidic loads you mention.
Mine goes into float mode w/ little red leds glowing all over the place, including 1 led light burning 24 hrs 365.
