The problem could well be the age of your battery and its aging rise in internal impedance. If it will not charge to 13 plus volts of a fully charged battery, it indicates excessive internal resistance/ age.
The fact everything cleared up on an AC to DC supply supports the battery as a problem battery. If the battery is 3 years old, expect problems. Most security companies and others relying on gel cells change them out in 2-3 years, even if they have not been heavily used.
