Echo Dot 3rd Gen Charger Specs

Here we cover the Echo Dot 3rd gen charger specs for the AC charger that comes with the speaker.   First,, the US version of this charger has non folding AC prongs.  It also has a six-foot long affixed cord. Further, it’s light weight for the 15 watt power output. It’s square yet small width and height. This 12-volt supply fits into a standard power strip or wall outlet.  But it blocks no nearby outlets, as shown next.

Yet this charger quietly puts out that 15 watts of power to this latest, 3rd gen of the Amazon Dot speaker.  Also, this charger offers decent voltage regulation.  This allows the little speaker to play deeper bass, crisper treble, and substantial audio volume over all.





Further, this is not a low-budget AC charger. It appears well built.  Also, it is sealed, runs with little heating even at higher volumes, and gives off little if any RFI and EMI noise. But while not built for repair, the low cost of this switching charger makes fixing it a relic endeavor.

The size of the positive lead hole at the top of the barrel plug is roughly 2 mm.  Note, that this is a bit smaller than the 21 watt and larger versions of this power supply.





Finally, the chargers for the 2nd generation Echo (21 watts) and this one (15 watts) look about the same.  But they ARE NOT interchangeable.  This is due to center conductor size difference.  Also, there’s the DC output voltage on the 21 watt version is 15 volts.  But on THIS charger, it’s 12 volts. So, even if the connectors from each supply would fit the other speaker, their voltage specs make them dangers on that other speaker.

This charger, including its cable and connector, weighs 4 ounces.
