This is not normal. This would mean that the charger cannot see the battery and it is not charging. It could be either one of two things. The terminals on the top of the battery are possibly dirty. You would need to take the top off to the clean the terminals. After they have been cleaned, put the top back on and try to recharge the battery. If this still does not work, contact Start Pac with the serial number so they can figure out how old the unit is. This would mean it is possibly a component failure in the system.
The units weight is about 30 lbs. We recommend he carry his Start Pac in the cabin where its warm. If you let this cold soaked it will not work well. Try to keep the Start Pac from 70-900F. You can carry it in your own aircraft but not on a passenger aircraft.
