The gen runs for a little over an hour and seems like the batteries are draining pretty quickly for the light load I am putting on them ( house lights and sometimes the radio). Thinking the new batteries may be damaged already.

When you say low, hopefully not below the plates. If possible make sure they are filled just below the bottom of the caps and hook up to some kind of shore power for a day of two just to get a full charge. When not on shore power volts shouldn't drop below 12.0 volts. To fully charge with Gen, it could take 2 of 3 hours. How long have you had these batteries and what kind?
