Chromecast on 12V
Plenty of motorhomes and caravans still have a Chromecast behind the TV, and it still does the job. With the Wifi.se power adapter it no longer needs its own wall socket. It is tested and confirmed with Chromecast, including older models.
Cast from your phone at the campsite
A Chromecast is controlled from your phone, so the phone and the Chromecast must be on the same wifi. In a motorhome that is often the vehicle's own router. The power adapter handles the power, the router handles the connection.

How the energy buffer works
A standard USB port on a TV often supplies only around 0.5 amps. That is not always enough for a TV stick. The Wifi.se power adapter has a patented design with a built-in energy buffer. The buffer stores energy and releases it when the stick needs more.
If the TV's port is not enough, plug the adapter into a USB charger in the 12V socket. Then it works in a motorhome, a caravan, on a boat and at the campsite.
Tips for Chromecast
- Plug the Chromecast into an HDMI port where it is not pressed against the wall.
- If you get a black screen at startup, try another USB port or a USB charger.
- If you have the model with a remote, see the page for Chromecast with Google TV.
