Tom: Your batteries may have to be replaced after loosing that much electrolite, most battery testers only check for proper voltage your batteries may be charging to 12 volts but no longer supply the amperage needed to run the TM at peak levels one way to test this is to put your tester on the battery and then turn on the TM if the voltage drops signifigantly your batteries are shot.

This is much like when your car battery goes bad in the winter there is enough power to turn on the lights but barely enough to crank the starter fast enough to start the engine
