Low battery symptoms

Greetings folks.

I think I need a new battery...there' been some weird symptoms:

-slow cranking at times - I charged it in the spring, but doesn't seem to hold that robust crank power when starting after a couple of weeks

-the battery light comes on, then goes out after restart

-randomly the spoiler lifts on start up with battery light on - press spoiler down button, battery light goes out

-battery light with oil light comes on when starting, goes out after restart (fresh synthetic/full of oil)

I have a Foxwell scanner with Porsche coding, but not an expert on that yet.

Before I head to my Indy for a battery test, just wanted to run this past the brain trust.

Thoughts?
