My guy smell the power plug. reason I stopped with MiTV box.

All this devices come with their power ratings. They dnt need much power neither do they need less power. This device simply needed just 5v 2ah. But you have plugged it on 5v 12ah. Hopefully it's not too fried that it cnt be fixed in Nigeria. How did you connect it? Using the power cord or a USB CORD?

Ok, let me tell you what you did wrong because of next time, the tv box is rated 5v2a, while decoder is 12v1.5a-2a, you can't use a higher volt DC to power a lower volt, that's why you burnt the tv box, the amps doesn't matter but the volt does. Anything solar without proper regulator will always burn fragile low-power devices like tv box because the power fluctuates. Assuming it's NEPA light the box might not even get burnt. The repair is 50/50 if you happen to give a quack and they mess it up just say bye-bye.

And you're sure the adapter is in good condition?
If so only a repairer can help you.

Meanwhile you can check YouTube for an idea of your problem too.

Forget it, the worst is that the Mi box has an 80% chance of also being damaged. The same thing happened to me bought over 3 different power plugs, but no effect. I just abandoned it in my wardrobe.

I need someone to refer me where I can do it

You should have gottent a phone USB port that has 1.8amp mouth and plug it on the phone port of the Sun king Solar. This is because the TV box volt is 5 volt 2amps while the Sun Solar port for phone is 5volt 1.8 amps. It will work perfectly. But I guess u plug it on the other ports that have 12 volts .
