Did you use the backup battery charger provided in the kit last year? As I recall, it was actually a power supply, not a charger. I know we killed our backup battery charging on that charger and had to purchase a replacement. Hopefully, next year FIRST will correct this mistake and backup batteries dying will no longer be an issue.
