One adapter, twelve tested sticks

The TV in your motorhome runs on 12V, but the stick wants its own socket. The Wifi.se power adapter solves that. It sits between the stick and the TV's USB port, and if the port does not supply enough, you plug it into a USB charger in the 12V socket instead.

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.
