iPad 1st Generation won’t charge. The screen blinks but won’t charge or turn on even after hard reset attempt?

Does the battery need replacing or is the IPad dead?

The battery in that nearly 10-year old iPad has, more than likely, finally failed.

That iPad is dead.

I do not believe there is any way to get any type of battery replacement for such an old iOS device.

Recycle the device responsibly.

Sorry.
