First off, the battery indicator on the wall is worthless to determine the state of charge in your batteries. It is there for entertainment purposes only. However what you are describing is your batteries won't hold anything more than a surface charge meaning they are most likely the problem. Check them with a volt meter about 15 minutes or so after you unplug . 12.7v would be a good reading. If they are closer to or under 12v, you have a battery problem.
Even a cheep volt meter for $10 will help you to trouble shoot the many problems you will encounter as time goes on.
