I charged the battery ~18 hours (LED shows green "charged") and everything seems normal inside, lights on etc, but nothing happens when I turn the key. I was able to jump it off of my girlfriend's car and let it run for ~10 minutes, turned it off and notice a lack-of-sound where I expected a sound (starter?) immediately after turning off the ignition. I immediately try to crank it bank up and again, not a peep.
The battery is maybe a year old, definitely less than 2, so I'm thinking starter but I am not good with electrical stuff. Like I said it sat for a while so I'm also thinking a bad connection to the starter could also be a possibility.
I just wanted to see what you folks thought about it before I get in there.
Thanks!

I would say not your starter or jumping it wouldn't work, more likely a bad battery connection and or bad ground connection
