The following works just fine in LaTeX:

\SI{1}{\electronvolt} = \SI{1.602176621(98)e-19}{\joule}

However, when rendered using MathJax I have

1 eV = 1.602176621(98)e - 19 J

Where e - 19 shows up instead of the \times usual scientific notation. The package works fine when using regular decimals though.

To render properly I had to use the following workaround:

\SI{1}{\electronvolt} = \num{1.602176621(98)}\times 10^{-19}\,\si{\joule}

Is there a way to typeset this properly? I couldn't find anything similar in the package reference.
