PSVita power problem

[shmeaf]

I’m currently using my usb cord for my used JP limited edition Dragon Quest PSVita, that I recently bought and it seems that the battery was drained. The charge indicator is lit(on top unlike the other vita’s I’ve seen on YouTube. Will flash orange when trying to turn on, like it doesn’t have enough power yet to simply turn on, has been a couple hours like the PS YouTube channel has said it might take for a drained battery to start. Was curious if it was battery or something else? If anyone has also had a similar issue

Have you tried connecting to a wall socket? I have a feeling Vita doesn’t charge via USB.
