Default battery / ignition problem

odd thing happened to me yesterday.

went to the car to start it and no power whatsoever when i try to turn the motor.

No acc/ no dome/ no lights.

But when i try to remote start it with my clifford it turns.
I find that my battery has drained and need to jumped to get going.
So I jump it run and the alternator manages to charge enough for running without another jump.

Here is where it gets odd/weird, i turn off the car and take out the key. it turns EVERYTHING OFF. i lose my dome and everything and no power when i put the key in the ignition for accessory. is it because the battery is so low? but when i use the remote start it has enough juice to run the alarm brain?

went to kragen and had a load test and battery test. they things are running normal.

so my setup is an amp running to battery, alarm. so any ideas.

Thanks any advice would help now.
