Amazon Fire Stick.

<< < (3/3)

tickmike:
Just a warning, I though it would be a good idea instead of using the provided mains to 5v USB adapter for the fire stick I would use the USB socket on the TV and leave it plugged in .
Not such a good idea as we had the picture breaking up a lot (we are on the fringe of the TV reception area and do get this from time to time !)  but it has been continuous so I un-plugged the USB and the picture was fine again on the TV channels.       
Now I am going to use the provided mains to 5v USB adapter  :blush:

Ronski:
Thats a bit odd, you'd expect it to work fine,  but perhaps the socket can't quite supply enough power and that affects the tuner.

tickmike:
Yes that what I thought .
I should think it is pulling down the 5v supply.
