Is a Power Bank enough to power Amazon Echo Dot?

Posted byChasPosted inAlexaTags:,

For Christmas, I got a Power Bank and an Amazon Echo Dot. The Power Bank is great for emergency when you need to charge your phone and there are no power sockets on a train or car (example). The Power Bank can charge an iPhone 4. But can it power the Echo Dot?

I tried charging up my Power Bank and plugging it into Echo Dot. I waited a few seconds and it worked! It runs perfectly and can play BBC Radio One really well 🙂 :).

  1. your power bank should list the wattage somewhere– or the current in milliamps.

    you want the power bank to supply more than the 9 watts that your echo dot requires– if it supplies less then youre creating a hazard for the power bank and probably shortening the life of the battery in the dot.
