Status: offline 		batteries have a certain number of charge cycles, so it could just be worn out, i think NIHM's can be charged over 1000 times but they go downhill from there, your charger my also be damaged

Status: offline 		It still can be the battery. What type of battery does your bump starter have? If its only the hobby packs you may as well just get a couple of new ones, but if its something different, take it down to your local battery store an they will soon tell you if its buggered or not.
