Fremo Evo Plus Battery Base for Amazon Echo Dot 2nd Generation (Black)

Purchased July 11th, 2023So far, I've had no problems with it. It has a nice rubber bottom ring to keep it from sliding. The connector piece is quite stable & it keeps my echo dot charged. I carry it around the house all the time & in the bathroom while I shower. I'm SO glad I bought this, worth the price for sure!

Defective in less than 2 months. Since the return policy is 30 days, I'm stuck with what appears to be a hockey puck or a paperweight. On a good side, it was very well designed. The battery lasted as mentioned in the product detail, pricing was palatable, and it was a great product when it was working. For whatever reason, this product just stopped working without any dramatic event. I would like to give this product 5 stars, but due to its malfunction in such a short time, I am reconsidering my opinion on the quality of this product. It was good while it lasted.UPDATE: We found out the problem was a bad connector and once I repaired that, it has been working great again ever since! Star rating updated.

I’m not sure what happened but it will no longer power my dot. Even if I plug the battery into the power source it’s not working. It’s like the power connector broke? I’ve only had it 6 months.

I liked the battery base, it works well. I didn't like the fact the blue power button on the battery base appeared to activate, or recharge, and would illuminate periodically. Which potentially activates Alexa, to record, but I will never know as I've had different answers. It only did this at night, so eventually I just unplugged the Dot from the base. Does the battery base make the Dot essentially always on? I am not paranoid about Alexa and we enjoy our devices; but I don't want a battery device that appears to activate the microphone when we think we have 'privacy'. I don't know the technicalities, but nobody could provide a clear answer. It is unplugged, and I will use it again once I know. Great product and battery life was superb, otherwise.

AMAZING little gadget that is just what I needed! I love this thing. So many times I would be listening to something on the iHeart Radio app and I wanted to leave the room and go to another in my house. Had to unplug Alexa and move her to another room and wait for her start up again. All the while I would miss part of the broadcast. NOW I simply take Alexa with me from room to room and I don't have to turn her on and off. I have it hooked up to a nice bluetooth speaker that also operates on battery power, so now it is just so convenient to be able to take both from room to room, or even outside on the patio. I didn't know such a thing existed, but was so excited to find it that I couldn't buy it fast enough.

The EVO battery base lasted 4 years then stopped powering the Echo Dot. It needed to have its connector to the Dot cleaned with contact cleaner, before it would continue work again.

Just got it, love the idea & I've been waiting for it since I'm not sure how long my portable Tap will last - it was the best buy ever! The tap didn't need the battery base to take outside though. The problem I see right away with this is there's no clip on the front to hold them together - this should not be a future new discovery/purchase, these should firmly connect since the idea is for it to move around. I also need a battery base for my Echo 3 but the price is absolutely ridiculous so I'll wait. I haven't tried longevity on this yet but if it does as says I will be happy.

Great but does not work with the 3rd generation Alexa. Only the 2nd gen version. I bought it for the new version but it won't work with it. But, great with the old one,
