Enhancing your experience with Amazon devices like Echo, Echo Show, and Echo Dot is made easier with a range of accessories. Many of these are Amazon-certified, ensuring quality and compatibility. Here, we highlight budget-friendly options under 50 euros, including extension cables, mounts, battery packs, and more.
Finding the Perfect Spot for Your Echo Dot
Choosing the ideal location for your Echo Dot in your home can be quite challenging. It’s important that the speaker is elevated to ensure that Alexa can hear you clearly and vice versa. Additionally, a nearby power source is essential since the included power cable has a limited reach. Fortunately, this issue can be resolved by using an extension cable.
Extension cables come in various lengths ranging from 0.5 to 3 meters, with prices starting at just 3.56 euros, depending on the length you choose. The manufacturer states that this cable is compatible with all generations of the Echo Dot.
Secure Mounting Solutions for Your Echo Dot
Many users often find their Alexa speaker resting on the TV stand due to limited placement options. However, this can lead to unintended activations if someone on the TV mentions ‘Alexa’ or similar terms, which can be quite frustrating.
While you can select a different activation word to mitigate this issue, the limited options available might not be sufficient. A better solution is to use specialized wall or socket mounts for your Echo Dot.
Typically priced at 24.99 euros, the wall mount is currently available for 19.99 euros in celebration of the Prime Deal Days. This officially certified accessory, marked with the ‘Made for Amazon’ seal, is compatible with both the Echo Dot 4 and 5. It comes with all necessary screws, dowels, and an adhesive strip for easy installation, along with cable management features.
For those who prefer not to drill holes in their walls, socket mounts from Amazon or PlusAcc offer a convenient alternative. However, these options are exclusively for the Echo Dot 5. They allow you to attach the Echo Dot securely to a socket, eliminating the need for drilling.
The PlusAcc mount is the more affordable option, while the ‘Made for Amazon’ socket mount from Amazon offers the added benefit of rotation for better alignment. This certified socket mount retails for 23.99 euros and includes integrated cable management to keep your setup tidy.
Currently, the mount can be purchased starting from 13.99 euros, down from its original price of 16.99 euros. Available in both black and white, this mount enables you to insert the Echo Dot and plug it directly into the socket, while neatly storing any excess cable within the mount.
Portable Power with Battery Packs
The Echo Dot has become a popular choice for background music, but its reliance on a power outlet can be limiting. This is where battery packs come into play.
The PlusAcc battery pack is available for 37.99 euros during Prime Day, reduced from 39.99 euros. It’s compatible with both the Echo Dot 4 and 5 and offers up to 13 hours of portable use, depending on volume and usage intensity.
For those seeking original accessories, the ‘Made for Amazon’ certified battery base from Mission Cables is another option. This base is compatible with Echo Dot 4 and 5 and provides a runtime of 5 hours.
Additionally, a smart plug can significantly enhance the functionality of your Echo devices. You can control non-smart devices, like your Christmas tree lights, using voice commands.
The Tapo P110 Wi-Fi smart plug from TP-Link integrates seamlessly with Alexa and is currently available for just 10.99 euros, down from its usual price of 19.90 euros. It also features energy consumption monitoring.
Alternatively, the Sengled Smart Plug is available for 13.49 euros but requires a Matter-compatible control hub for operation.
