I have purchased battery back pack add on (Adafruit LiIon/LiPoly Backpack Add-On for Pro Trinket/ItsyBitsy) and connected a battery to my board.
When i plug it in with the USB, both the red charging light and the green DON light come on.
When i disconnect the USB the battery doesn't power the board.
Whats wrong?

We only support usage with LiPo batteries from the Adafruit shop:

The Amazon battery appears to have reverse polarity and is not compatible.
