Your battery should read at least 12.7V after being shut down for at least 8 hrs. Just because it charged to 100% does not mean it is up to snuff. it's highly unusual that your engine would die while it was running if the alternator was charging properly. It sounds to me that you need to perform a current draw test on your system, preferaably while running (using an inductive amp meter).
