Unleash the Alexa
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Finally! My Echo Dot 4th Gen is free from wired attachment! There are always times when I would like to bring my Echo with me to various parts of the house but the hassle of disconnecting and reconnecting it prevents me from doing so. Thanks to this Amazon Battery Base that is no longer an issue. Installation is incredibly simple, just disconnect the Echo, place it on the base, connect the two-pronged plug to attach the Echo to the base, and connect the base to the power to charge it. Once it is charged you can unplug it and place it wherever you want, so long as Wi-Fi is available, and it will go for hours. It is very lightweight, sturdy, and adds a nice appeal to the look of the Echo Dot. The battery lasts up to five hours before needing to be recharged. What’s great about it is that it can remain plugged in without issue. In other words, there is no risk of damaging the battery life of the base by keeping it plugged in until it needs to be moved around again. I genuinely recommend this base to anyone who has an Echo Dot 4th or 5th Gen. The freedom of movement and the aesthetic design are thoroughly worth it.

Make your Echo Dot portable with this
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The batter base for the Amazon Echo Dot is a great little addition to your existing Echo Dot. What it enables you to do is make your Echo Dot portable. I have the 4th gen Echo Dot. It was just in our guest bedroom so our guest could use Alexa when spending the night. Now we can use it in our backyard, front yard, anywhere in the house. You will need wifi to connect to the internet. I have not tried using my phone’s internet to use it away from home, like the park or the beach. The Echo Dot sits on top of the base. The base itself has a battery. It comes with a U-shaped adapter. You connect the base to the Echo Dot. Then you use the existing charging cable to charge the base and power the Echo Dot. Once the base is charged, you can now unplug and bring the Echo Dot anywhere. The base design is nice. It looks like it is part of the Echo Dot. I really like the way it looks. Right now, I have it on a bookshelf in the office. As soon as I come in, I say a command to Alexa, and it runs a routine to start my day. Very cool. I recommend this for those who want to be able to move the Echo Dot around the house and yard where you have wifi connection. It extends the usability of the device.

All of Alexa while on the move!
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.As a long time Echo Dot owner, the ability to take its features on the go is something that I’ve always wanted. In full disclosure, I had this with the 2nd Gen Echo Dot via a battery operated speaker that it attached to. Since that broke, and I upgraded to new versions, I have longed to have this portability back in my life. Well, welcome the Amazon Battery Base for Echo Dots by Mission. This works with the normal 4th & 5th Gen Echo Dots as well as the ones with the clocks built in. The setup and installation was as easy as it gets. You just unplug your Echo Dot, place it in the battery dock, connect the cable to the Dot and base, and then the power cord goes into the base. After some time, the base will be fully charged. Once it’s charged, you can travel the world with it. Okay, maybe not the world, but everywhere around your home and yard as long as you have a stable Wi-Fi connection. For our family, we love to have music on the patio when outside. Yes, we can use our phone with the Alexa app and a Bluetooth speaker. However, this is so much better. You can continue with all of the same Alexa commands on your Dot without having to get a device out to control it. This is also a big win with kids for bath/shower time. Giving them the joy of music while getting clean is always a win. As far as the sound goes, you still get the same quality as if it’s plugged in. The Amazon - Battery Base for 4th and 5th Gen Echo Dot by Mission doesn’t interfere there at all. I tried various songs, commands, and anything else I could think of. There was never a downtick in performance. When it comes down to it, I can’t recommend the Amazon - Battery Base for 4th and 5th Gen Echo Dot enough. This is a must have for anyone that wants to take their Echo Dot and Alexa capabilities all over their home. The sound is still great. The illumination of the Dot is not impacted. All that and the freedom of no power cord. What more could you want!

Adds portability to Echoe DOT 5
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The Echoe DOT battery base looks like it was made this way. I take it outside on the porch so I can listen to music, pod casts, and see the time. The jumper plug transfers power from the battery base to the ECHOE Dot Clock while it charges. The base has slots for the power cables and the bottom port of the speaker. I found the battery lasted over the 5 hour run time when I used it only for the time function. I find the materials are sturdy. The matte black finish compliments the ECHOE DOT, especially my blue fabric . Simplic in design, I was suprised someone hadn't thought of this before. Being able to leave the Echoe Dot "semi-permanently" connected means no wasted time when charging the base. No extra step other than unplugging the factory supplied power cord. And since it uses the already owned plug, no special extra hardware needed to use the battery base. Simple desing, good looks and easy to use. As long as my WiFi can reach it the Echoe dot will function as intended. Just like the portable rdios of yesteryear!

An interesting addition to Echo Dot
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The Amazon Battery Base for Echo dot is a unique and interesting addition to use with my 5th Generation Echo Dot. At first, I wasn't really sure what the use case would be for a "wireless" Echo Dot, but I have definitely found several creative and fun uses! The battery connects to the Echo Dot with a lever-type connection and then the power is plugged in to the other hole. Pros: - Echo pretty much anywhere (at least anywhere you have WiFi) - SUPER simple set up - Allows you to take your dot with you around your house or workplace as long as it can connect to the WiFi it was originally set up with. - The sound seems richer with much more base; this is probably because in the kitchen or even on the dashboard in my car, the dot is totally exposed on all sides rather than up against a wall (as shown in my picture). NOTE: I named the WiFi in my car to match the WiFi in our home so it does work in the car, but I was not able to connect it to either an iPhone or Android hotspot without renaming the network. Cons: - The only real "con" to this battery base for Echo Dot is it isn't for "everywhere." You need to be in range of the WiFi network the dot was originally activated with. - Does NOT connect easily to a phone hotspot; it needs to match the network it was set up on OR connect it to another network to be saved in the Alex app. This is a great little tool to make Echo Dots somewhat more portable.

Make Alexa Mobile; Battery Lasts Between Recharges
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Very easy way to temporarily take Alexa with you outside or into an area where you don't have one while you are doing work (such as garage.) You don't really notice the charging stand has an integrated battery until you need to take it somewhere. Just unplug the based and take it with you. Charge is good for hours. (Your wifi network still needs to reach the area you move it to but you don't need to plug it in.) Perfect for the outdoor deck or lawn chair in the backyard.

Very Handy Device for Amazon Echo Mobility
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.With a houseful of various Echoes, music, information, and smart home activity is all over the place, including the garage. When I want music on the deck, I get it using a Bluetooth connection between the Echo 10 in my living room and a paired speaker. For the most part that works, but the overall control functionality is missing. This new Mission Battery Base for the Amazon Dot has made that issue go away. By pairing it with the Dot 5th Gen currently in my garage, I have 100% Echo mobility anywhere I want it. This base is the perfect solution. A major advantage afforded is complete portability for a long period of time. The first time I used it for any length of time, the Dot had been on battery for about 10 hours, and it still had juice. The “feed me” light was blinking. During that period, several hours were music. The rest of the time was to satisfy curiosity about its performance. The battery is promoted as having a 5-hour capability on a full charge, and I find no reason to doubt it. So long as you have Wi-Fi to connect to Alexa, it will work a long time anywhere. That is terrific! The base is sturdy and well designed for the Dot to fit into. You would have to hit it very hard to knock it over. Speaking of “hitting” the Dot, I have read some bashing complaints of the Dot stopping music or whatever else is going if it got bumped. Perhaps they were unaware that the newer Dot Gens have a “pause” function that is performed by tapping the Dot’s surface. Tap again to resume. In pause mode, a lighted pause icon (II) appears on the surface. That said, the tap does need to be firm to make pause/un-pause work. Of course, you can always tell Alexa to do it for you. She’ll be glad to help. The only thing that bothers me about this base is the connector wire between device and base is quite short. I found it difficult getting both ends connected through the slot in the base. If the wire were even 1/8” longer, it would have made the job so much easier for my “old” hands to accomplish. With that, “set up” would have been a snap. It was annoying, but it wasn’t enough to cost a star. It is said that good things come in small boxes, and that is certainly true as to this battery base. It really does expand the usefulness of 4th and 5th Gen Dots.

Makes your Dot portable!!!
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The battery base for the Echo Dot is a great addition to the Echo Dot. The setup is simple. Unplug the power supply to your Echo Dot and plug it in to the battery base. There is a short jumper cable supplied with the battery base, that is plugged into the second port on the battery base on one end and the Echo Dots power port on the other. The Echo Dot sits attached to the battery base and may be used as it always has been. The battery base charges and supplies power to the Dot while plugged in. When unplugged, the battery base is rated to provide power for 5 hours. We have 6 Echo Dots of different generations and several other Alexa enabled devices (TV, soundbars...) around the house and have become used to asking questions and playing music from Amazon Music Unlimited in most of our home but now, with the battery base, we can effortlessly bring Alexa outside. We have used the battery base while sitting in our front courtyard, while gardening and in the back while grilling. It is great to be able to just unplug the Dot and take it with us around the yard. Our EERO system reaches everywhere we have taken it around our house and yard and, while I haven't set it up yet, I understand that the 5th generation Dot can extend the EERO WiFi coverage. We both love the portability that the battery base provides. I will get a second one so that I can have one in the front courtyard and one on the back patio for when we have a crowd.

Great for amazon echo
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I livd the Amazon Battery base for the Echo Dot. It fits perfectly into the base, it takes up minimal room , and it works perfectly. You can choose to keep your echo on the base or take it with you when you go outside. It charges quickly giving my device hours of charge time when using. I like the base because i can keep track of where my echo is and still have the same quality sounds as if it were next to me. I can enjoy playing music away from where it is which i love. This is compatible with the amazon echo gen 4. Its easy to set up and use. I highly reccomend getting thia for your echo. It doesnt take any tool to attach your echo. Overall i love having the battery base for portability, having a stand to keep track of my echo, and for how it doesnt take up much room on my desk or my side tables. The quality of sound for music is still the same. The base just gives you more portability of use to listen to music or anything else wherever around your home. Great for gatherings as well.

Very Useful Accessory to Your Echo Dot
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The Echo Dot Battery Base is a very useful accessory for your little Echo Dot. The Echo Dot fits snugly into the base which is designed to allow access to the power connections. You get a small jumper cable included with the battery base. The installation is intuitive but instructions are included if you want to ensure you make the connections correctly. Once completed your power will come into the battery base so you can disconnect it at anytime and move the Echo Dot coupled with the battery base to the kitchen or patio or any other convenient location – no muss and no fuss. You have a couple little LEDs to show you the charge status. One LED will turn off when fully charged and the other one will come on when you need to recharge the base. I noticed the battery base design is minimalist and looks very nice when coupled up with your Echo Dot. Also very important, when you play music through the Echo Dot, there is no vibration or distortion – nice going Amazon engineers. I definitely recommend this battery base that makes perfect sense as an addition to your Echo Dot to add even more portability.

Take Your Echo Dot Anywhere In Or Around Your Home
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Have you ever wanted to just simply bring your Echo Dot outside or move it to another room for a few hours? Has the thought of having to reach around or behind things to unplug it, bring it to another room, plug it back in and wait until it links back up to your WiFi make you think twice about doing it? This is just the thing you need! Make sure you have a 4th or 5th generation Echo Dot. This will not work with earlier versions of the Echo Dot. This is a simple, easy to use battery pack/stand for your Echo Dot that can make it portable. You can also use it as a plug-in stand for your Dot while not in use transporting to a location without access to a plug. I love being able to listen to my music or just simply ask a question when I am outside and this makes it easy to do. When I have friends sitting with me on my patio and they ask a question we don’t know the answer to, I just turn to the Dot and find the answer to their question. While watching the hummingbirds we had a lot of questions and learned a lot about them. I think the neighbors enjoyed it as much as I did. Set up of this battery pack is very easy. You will place your Dot into the battery base, making sure the cutout on the battery base aligns with the power outlet of the Dot. Plug the power adapter/jumper, which was loose in the box, into the left side of the battery base and the power outlet of the Dot. You will plug your power adapter for the base into the right side of it and then into an outlet for charging. After charging you simply unplug the power adapter from the base of the battery base/stand and you are now ready to take your Dot anywhere. I like that there is a rubber base on the bottom of the battery stand. The rubber makes sure your Dot is not sliding around on a counter or table. I have been able to bring this out to my garden area to listen to a podcast while gardening. I have had this out on the patio for music while hosting a party. You can bring your Dot as far as your WiFi reaches. I have found this battery pack makes my Echo Dot very versatile on how I use it. I think this is a wonderful thing to have. I highly recommend it to anyone that wants to take their Echo Dot with them just about anywhere around their home.

Transform Your Echo Dot Experience
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Unleash the Power of Portability I have been using the Amazon Battery Base with my Echo Dot 5th Gen, which has completely transformed my user experience. No longer confined to a stationary power outlet, I can carry my Echo Dot around my home, take it outside for BBQ parties, or relax on the deck. The battery lasts a solid 4.5 hours, providing plenty of time to enjoy music, get updates, or control smart home devices without worrying about running out of power. Elegant Design That Complements Audio Performance Before purchasing, one of my primary concerns was whether this base would affect the Echo Dot's audio performance. I am pleased to report that the design of the Amazon Battery Base elegantly blends with the Echo Dot without compromising its sound quality. It is not an additional, chunky accessory; instead, it integrates seamlessly, appearing as if it was part of the original Echo Dot design. Tailor-Made for Echo Dot 4th & 5th Gen I appreciate that this accessory has been specially designed for the Echo Dot 4th and 5th Generations. It fits perfectly, without any loose connections or awkward adjustments. Freedom From the Power Outlet The integrated battery feature is a game-changer. It allows for a liberating experience, especially when I want to take my Echo Dot to places where an electrical outlet is not readily available. Whether cooking in the kitchen, working in the garage, or enjoying a picnic, the Amazon Battery Base has made it incredibly convenient to have my Echo Dot by my side. Compatibility Done Right It is essential to note that this battery base is specifically compatible with the Amazon Echo Dot 4th and 5th generations. This focused compatibility ensures that the Amazon Echo Dot Battery Base performs optimally, providing a hassle-free and satisfying user experience. Final Thoughts The Mission Battery Base for the 4th and 5th Gen Echo Dot offers an outstanding solution for making your Echo Dot portable without compromising on design or audio performance. It is a reliable and stylish addition to the Echo ecosystem that has significantly enhanced my overall experience.

Useful in a very specific way
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have the echo dot with the clock, and it serves as my primary clock for the morning rush, where it sits at the kitchen table while the kids get ready for.. whatever they do every day. There is no plug right there and it works nicely in the middle of the table for news radio, telling my kid the score of the game, asking the weather, and all the other basics families use Alexa for. We have a minimalist kitchen, and my wife doesn’t allow any gadgets. So every morning, I unplug this and carry it to the kitchen on my way down, where it lasts well into the night, depending on if anyone left it on. Not many people likely have a use case for a battery powered Alexa, I’d assume, but if you do, this should fit the bill. It functions as an Alexa should. It comes with a little adapter that plugs into the Alexa and into the battery. Then you use the original plug in the back of the battery. Pictures online show it going straight down but if you want the dot to look straight, the wire is diagonal. Which is totally not an issue. The real issue is there’s no off switch. It would be nice to be able to turn it off without fiddling with the plugs. Otherwise, it’s nice. When Alexa is muted, the bottom glows red through the cutout rings and the audio sounds perfect because nothing is blocked. Definitely worth a look if you need battery powered Alexa for some reason.

Pretty cool little stand with battery backup
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.So there's honestly not too much to review about this. You see what it looks like, your Amazon Echo Dot fits in it perfectly. I do like how they have it slotted where the blue illuminated ring shows through when you wake up or talk to your device. It comes with the battery/stand and one simple plug to daisy chain your Echo Dot to the base and the original plug that comes with your Echo Dot plugs into the base instead of your device now. That's really about it. Very simple to set up. Although I don't understand how your Echo Dot would still work with no Wifi even though it has the battery powered base attached. I get that the base/battery makes your Echo Dot portable but if I'm not mistaken I thought for your Echo Dot to work you had to have it connected to Wifi? So not to sure what exact features it'll actually be able to do if you take it with you somewhere that has no Wifi like camping or a picnic or something.I can't imaging someone would want to carry this around with them casually. As far as the stand goes It looks pretty cool I'd recommend it to others

Another portable bluetooth speaker basically
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.So the battery base is useful for sure. I use it for the front porch when myself and my neighbors are all congregating. It is basically another portable bluetooth speaker though, so if you don't already have one of those, this will be a game changer. It seems to hold a charge decently, which is good, but it has yet to stand the test of time. Also, I have heard of the connector cable between the echo and the battery base going bad and that affecting the quality of use. Again, we will see how it does a few months from now, especially after regular use. This was also nice to use out by my neighbors pool and be able to play games on Alexa. It's a great crowd pleaser and the speaker is the same quality of all the echos, even while connected to the battery base. I had it playing music from my Spotify list for about 1-2 hours the other day and I still have yet to fully charge it up again, so one charge should be able to last through at least a full day function without issue. Again, the same use of a bluetooth speaker without the price tag. Can't beat it.
