Just recently I bought a pi, completely unbeknownst to the dangers of high voltage on a 5V board.
I wasn't really sure whether or not I needed a specific charger, so I used an android-esque charger that was originally purposed for
a high-end speaker. In retrospect, I realize that it drew an immense amount of power.
I only plugged it in a few times, and momentarily at that. Once I realized that I needed a purposed charger with 5V, I went out and bought one.
Now that I have the proper power source, when I plug it into the board there's a constant red light near the power label, and no light at the OK label.
I'm fairly sure it has nothing to do with the micro sd, as I have vetted it and it seems fine, it's in the correct format and contains the right files from NOOBS. I'm confident I've triggered the pi's polyfuse from the initial power mixup, what can I do to reset the fuse or somehow cut my losses and recover the pi?
I'm hoping I haven't bricked my pi or have to wait ages for its fuse to reset.
May I have some suggestions for recovering my pi?
