I would exchange battery with a known good one. Sometimes they can show good voltage but not deliver current.

Also starters can go bad if you ragged insulator in bits trying to remove cable. You moved it? When did this start? Suddenly/intermittent fault?

Connect up to a car battery with a good set of jump leads. If it fires up almost certainly the battery.
