I think what may have happened (what I do to fix this problem) is that there
is/was a very low amount of charge left in the battery, so fully discharging
it and leaving your Amiga on will re-charge the battery, making it okay for
quite some time.

This little discharging trick only needs to be done every 2 years or so (or
something around then, some very HUGE amount of time).
