Christmas presents under 50 euros: Anyone who has a Fire TV Stick will be happy about these 5 gadgets

• The Fire TV Stick from Amazon is popular and is one of the top sellers at the mail order company every year.
• However, its range of functions can be expanded using accessories.
• The Ethernet adapter, for example, ensures a more stable connection and the Alexa voice remote control Pro provides more convenience.

The Fire TV Stick is one of the top sellers on Amazon. No wonder. The stick is often on offer for less than 20 euros and allows you to make an old television smart and stream Netflix etc. on it. But did you know that its range of functions can be significantly expanded with the right accessories? Below we will introduce you to five accessories that cost less than 50 euros and are therefore also suitable as a Christmas present for Fire TV fans.

Not everyone is satisfied with the performance of the stick. Because sometimes there are problems when setting up the menus or films and series jerk. However, this often has less to do with the stick itself and more to do with an insufficient WiFi connection near the television. This can happen especially in larger apartments or if the stick is shielded from a large television. A small gadget can help improve your Internet connection: the Fire TV Ethernet adapter.

• Compatible with Fire TV Stick Lite, Fire TV Stick (2nd and 3rd Gen.), Fire TV Stick 4K, Fire TV Stick 4K Max, Fire TV Cube, Fire TV (3rd Gen., pendant form) and Fire TV Basic Edition .

• Connect Fire TV Stick to the router via cable.

• Ethernet and power connection

It allows the Fire TV Stick to be connected to the Internet using a LAN cable. Amazon offers the Ethernet adapter for the Fire TV Stick for 16.99 euros.

A weak WiFi connection is not the only problem that plagues many of you with a Fire TV Stick. Some people may not only want to stream films and series from Netflix on the stick, but also play pictures and videos that are saved on a hard drive.

This is made possible by apps like VLC Player. But how do you get the hard drive connected to the Fire TV Stick? Here too, an adapter that is able to split the Micro-USB port of the Fire TV Stick helps. You can currently get one of these on Amazon for around 6 euros.

A notice: It is unclear whether Ethernet and USB OTG adapters can be used in parallel.

The Alexa voice remote control Pro is also worth a look. This offers three practical advantages over the standard remote control included with the stick:

• It can be located using a voice command if you misplace it on the sofa.
• It has two freely assignable buttons.
• All buttons on the remote control are illuminated in the dark.

• Location function

• illuminated keys

• 2 freely programmable buttons

Amazon charges 39.99 euros for the Alexa voice remote control Pro. The remote control is compatible with almost all current Fire TV Stick models. You can carry out a compatibility check on the Amazon website before purchasing.

Luminous remote control case as an alternative

If you’re just annoyed that the Fire TV Stick remote control doesn’t have a backlight, you can currently get a Pinowu case for the Fire TV remote control for just under 9 euros. These are brightly colored, which makes them easier to find. You can also charge them under a lamp so that they glow in the dark.

Another practical gadget is the Mission USB power cable. With this you can safely charge your Fire TV Stick via the TV’s USB port.

• USB cable with additional battery

• enables safe charging of the Fire TV Stick via the USB port

Amazon actually advises against this, as the Fire TV Stick can sometimes be damaged by fluctuations in the power supply. However, this Amazon-certified cable has an intermediary battery that compensates for this. It costs 25 euros.
