Okay, so if one battery is lower than suggested, and will not go to its normal strength,that would indicate its a bad battery?

Yes, you could confirm the low voltage reading with a low activity reading from the hydrometer and be certain...... Now a word of caution about mixing old and new batteries..... They charge at very different rates....the demands to completely charge the old ones will completely cook the new one.....what is stamped into the lead base of the neg battery terminals? All the same?
