Thank you all for your responses. OK, I'll come clean. I screwed up. As I mentioned, this car is new to me and I am still learning things about it. One very important detail is that this cars headlights are on full power when the ignition is in ACC mode for the radio, whereas my much older car of the same brand does not allow the headlights to be on in ACC position. Guess that would explain killing the battery with all lights on for 45+ minutes. I just assumed, and could not see as it was daytime. Anyway I did hook it up to the charger/tester and it was showing 85% and when put on a 2A slow charge quickly topped out at 100% in minutes.
