Keith is 100% correct. The base of Q2 would need to be at the same level as Va in order for it to switch off. 0.6v or more below Va would mean that it's biased on.
You will find that in its current form Q2 is actually always on.

The NPN Transistor driving R3 works fine. thank you all for your help it is greatly appreciated!

if you put a resistor on the battery for a short period you can decrease surface charge a lot and get an even more accurate reading (closer to actual charge held) on the battery
