Got myself into a bit of face-meet-palm situation while wiring a +5v power cable for my SJ4000 camera. Reverse polarity did its thing.
There is no obvious damage, blown/black bits but i suspect i have blown UN8HX charging IC.
I cant find a replacement for it in UK and trying to get it somewhere that doesnt involve slow boat from china or 30gbp delivery charge for a grain of sand.
The camera works just fine when hooked up to usb cable, which is also charging port, but charging capability is gone.
Alternately i might replace it with analogous replacement if i knew what they were.
Maybe someone here (uk based) might spare one IC, i'll pay the part and shipping of course.
