Java Objects: Code Challenge: Computed Properties Task 2

I can't figure out where I'm going wrong in my code! My barCount should be checking for equality with MAX_BARS but I keep getting the same error.

Tried checking for equality with 8 bars as well and still coming up with the same error.

GoKart.java 
class GoKart {
  public static final int MAX_BARS = 8;
  private String color;
  private int barCount;

  public GoKart(String color) {
    this.color = color;
  }

  public boolean isBatteryEmpty(){
    return barCount == 0;
  }

  public boolean isFullyCharged(){
    return barcount == MAX_BARS;
  }

  public String getColor() {
    return color;
  }

  public void charge() {
    barCount = MAX_BARS;
  }
}

So I figured it out! It was a simple syntax error in my camel case! UGH!
