Default Used wrong plug on my camcorder!! hELp!!

I accidentally used the wrong power plug for my camcorder. Nothing
happened. It didn't power on or anything. I didn't think much about
it. Then I figured i might have had the wrong plug. When I finally
did find the right plug for it, I plugged it in and nothing happened.
It doesn't turn on, nothing. It was working before I plugged in the
wrong plug.

The power adapter it is supposed to take is an 11v plug. The one I
accidentally used is a 9v. Did I blow a board or something? Is this
irreversible?

And this is the reason I bought a cheap etching tool. Every
wall wart, and power supply in the house gets the item name and model #
etched onto the back of the power supply as soon as it comes out of the box.
It really helps when all it says on the back of the power supply is voltage,
and made in china.
