12.7 volts is fully charged if the battery is at rest, as in sitting
disconnected from the charger overnight.

12.7 volts in not fully charged. Should be 13.6.

Edd,
From what you are saying, it sounds like either your T-1275 has
failed for some reason, or you have a bad connection - possibly in the battery
switch itself. If you don't have a way to test the battery, then substitute a
known good battery in its place and see what happens. Absolutely any car
battery, including the cheapest Walmart, will start your engine if the battery
is fully charged and in new condition. There is no way that you need to
consider paralleling starting batteries as a permanent solution to your
starting problem.

Josh,
When just the T-1275 is engaged, it’s a slow to no churning. When I
combine with the House Bank, she’ll start up.
I know the specs of the engine and the T-1275 say it should work, but the
numbers are close and, perhaps if the engine was new or in perfect condition it
would, but the amps just aren’t there to get it going.
All the best,
Edd
