Hey what is going on everybody Dan here from TechFIt360. I'm sure you all know
that the Amazon echo dot third generation has already been released
today I'll be showing you some mounting options. Sure you can set your echo dot
on a table or even on a desk that's so boring right? Today on the channel I have
a couple of mounts for your new echo dot from TotalMount it's time for my Tech
Snack series, So let's get to it!
So before we get started I would like to invite you to take a moment and
subscribe to the channel I promise promise promise that I'll be here when
you get back and also click the notification bell to be alerted each
time I post a new video another thing before we get started I
want to thank TotalMount for making today's video possible not only did they
supply the mounts for today's video but also hooked me up with a third generation
echo dot if you check out the company's website you'll discover they create
mounts for the Apple TV the fire TV cloud cam apple airport and also some
gaming mounts. Okay now first let's have a look at the total mount outlet and
wall mount I like having options when it comes to
placing my echo dot let's see what we have in the box there's an instruction
manual that will guide you through the three secure mounting options the echo
dot mount made of hard plastic with a sleeve for cable management control the
only color available right now is white and also included other mounting screws
and pin now if you choose the wall mount method you'll have to use the provided
screws for the install of course you still need to be fairly close to an
outlet for power I'm doing the power outlet method two ways to accomplish
this I've already removed the sleeve so now place the mount over the outlet
without removing any screws then insert the pin into the center hole of the
mount make sure the outlet holes line up then insert the power adapter into the
total mount and wind the cable around the mount in the cable storage area
reattach the sleeve plug in the echo dot and you're good to go
in the next method we will secure the mount by removing the outlet center screw
and attaching the total mount to the outlet by inserting the included screw
into the second hole this is the hole right below where we inserted the pin
insert the adapter wind up the cable plug up the echo dot three and again
you're good to go your echo is ready to almost obey your every demand now as you
can see here although the echo three is physically only using one outlet because
it's so large is gonna block that other outlet so this is something you should
consider when deciding on where you want to place your echo dot next is the hole
free wall mount no drilling needed for this one this comes in both black and
white color mounts inside this box you get the user manual two screws just in
case you want a more secure mount and two adhesive strips first I recommend
cleaning the wall area before attaching the adhesive strips simply attach the
strips to the mount the black lettering on the tape is informing you that this
is the wall side adhesive attached to the wall let it sit an hour
and then place the dot inside the Flex arm give it some juice and you're all
done. Alexa: "Thank you for watching today's video" You know the great thing about
using the adhesive strips is that you can easily remove the mount without any
damage to your wall you can pick up more adhesive strips from places like Walmart
Home Depot the Dollar Tree may even sell them. I feel the greatest benefit of
having mounts like these is the protection it provides it's going to be
pretty hard to spill something on your echo dot or knock it off your desk by
accident I've done both so everybody what do you think about these mounts
will you love it or leave it please leave me some comments down below
I'll be giving two of these mounts away and I'll choose my winners from the
first 20 subscribers who let me know they are interested in the comment

for yourself just follow the links in my description the outlet and wall mount
sells for $14.99 the white hole free mount sells for $11.99 and the black hole
