Default Battery or alternator?

Battery keeps letting me down. Starter motor starts sluggishly and then speeds up before the engine catches, or it just dies and needs a jump start or battery charger.
I've changed the brush pack in the starter motor to no avail.
battery voltage when charged is 12.6v.., engine running at 1500rpm then voltage is 13.6v.
Anyone have a clue what I should start with (no pun intended!).
