Fully charged battery will read 12.7 volts at the batt..12.5 is half discharged. The alt should read 14.5 volts at idle everything off fully charged battery..At any time if you rev it up and the charging voltage doesn't go over 14 volts the alt is bad. I'm sure the batteries are fine...Any drain over 30 ma is an indication of a problem.
