I've given up on all of them. Corded, gas or battery they all suck in my opinion. Between the motors burning out, engines not starting, endless messing with the string hubs and dealing with batteries there's not enough trimming what passes for grass in my climate worth the bother. I sold my pile of derelict trimmers at a yard sale and to he11 with all of them.

Maybe you ended up with a couple stinkers? There's ways to test them if you want. Though in my experience even "bad" batteries will usually exhibit normal terminal voltage after charging.

What do you think about the charger being a possible issue?

Going strictly by the photos in your first post, your "charged" voltage is nearly dead. So whether that's a bad battery, bad charger or bad connection between the two is what you get to resolve next. Using that same voltmeter see what the voltage is coming out of the charger and also directly on the batteries. Leave it on overnight and the next day it should be at least 13.8V, possibly higher. Once you know this you can then further narrow down the issue you're having.

That's a different size battery, 7Ah. It won't fit.
