MASTER-Amur robotic telescope has detected a bright outburst of this
dwarf nova in Cancer (Wils et al., 2009).

SDSS J080033.86+192416.5
  20121019.803  154CR  MASTER-Amur
  20121019.835  153CR  MASTER-Amur

This is the brightest magnitude detected for this star by MASTER-Amur
(previous bright outburst to 15.6m was detected on 2011-11-29).

Note that the amplitude of variability in the discovery paper by Wils
et al. (15.9-19.7) was based on SDSS DR7 data:
u=19.55 g=19.74 r=19.72 i=19.71 z=19.58

According to SDSS Data Release 8, the star is even fainter at quiescence:
u=19.92 g=20.13 r=20.04 i=19.96 z=19.69

No orbital period is given in AAVSO VSX and in Ritter-Kolb catalog
(rev. 7.18, July 2012).
