I have a CTEK battery charger on my ICE vehicle 12 volt battery:

Manual for charger is here:

It was working fine, but lately (for the last week) the green maintain light never comes on. Unfortunately, I left the battery off the charger for about 2 months. When I put it back on the charger, in a day or so the green light came on. A month or two later the green light never comes on, always shows the orange "charging" light. Battery voltage is 12.44 volts. Is my battery approaching end of life, or is there still time left on it? Car starts fine.
