There is a lot of variation in battery packs for lawnmowers.
Which make and model do you have?
It is possible that the battery pack was neglected or abused, leading to loss of capacity.
You might need to replace the battery.
Open circuit. no-load voltage is only one indicator, and does not tell the whole story of the capacity of that battery to help you cut your grass.
