I checked the four batteries with my multimeter. One of them read 8.1v!
Looks like I got a bad one. But at $12 each, the batteries were still a steal!

I would strongly recommend to anyone here to build their own pulse battery charger, recover all the free non working batteries you want never buy one again!
Another good method is to use epsom salt or alum, you would be surprized at how many sulphated batteries come back strong with a little work.
Also on a side note I don't recommend 12v batteries for an EV. They work but wear fast and don't provide much range generally, you might have to double them up in parallel
Good Luck
