I would like to confirm/deny my hypothesis about why this lamp stopped working. I have this USB work light https://assets.cdn.jula.com/preset:...=19790101000000 https://www.jula.se/catalog/el-och-belysning/armaturer/arbetsbelysning/arbetslampor/batteridriven-arbetslampa-led-024720/ It runs on a rechargeable battery and charges with USB-C A few days ago my girlfriend plugged a USB-C laptop charger into it. It ran for a minute or so and then went out and now it won't turn on. The specs for the lamp says "Input: 5V 1A" and the laptop charger says "Output: 20V 3.25A / 15V 3A / 9V 2A / 5V 2A" So my guess is that the laptop charger gave it 5V and 2A and fried it due to too many amps? Pictures of the disassembled lamp and of the charger: https://imgur.com/a/Dh4wOmN I can't see anything that looks fried though. Would this be something that could be fixed with some tinkering?

Thanks for the replies!Splode posted:I think it could just be this - if it was switched on and charging, the LEDs probably used more current than the battery was receiving from the charger, so despite being "on charge" it went flat. But shouldn't I then be able to charge it if I plug it back in? I tried with a phone charger as well but the charging LED on the lamp doesn't light up either.
