man, if the battery's no good it will go flat after 2 days without use, even if you charge it. So just charge it fully (till the charger is charging below one amp), let it sit disconnected, then after two days plug it in, if its flat/near flat buy a new one, simple as that btw if it charged in 1 day you either hav a small battery or a good charger, lol, mine takes 3 days Some original photos have not been recovered yet.
