WiiM Mini with Echo 4th Gen to create WiiM Group with Pro Plus

[QuarryHunslet]

Well the WiiM Mini arrived today. Have to say though that I'm more than a little disappointed that the USB Power Adaptor is no longer included. Box says inclusion varies by region. So not only do we pay a premium for WiiM products here in Australia, now they are removing previously included accessories for us as well.

We don’t get the power adaptor included in the UK either.

Must be a cost saving measure. Luckily I found one that suits the requirements.

A lot of phones don't come with chargers now either

This looks totally unambiguous to me.

Why would a device capable of putting out two times 10 W in total ask for a T 0.5 A fuse, irrespective of the mains voltage?

50 W at 100 V, 120 W at 240 V?

No, I don't think I follow your recommendation.

Inrush current?

Inrush current?

Irrespective of the mains voltage? Doesn't sound right to me.

I can't even see a voltage selector switch. There must be one.

Didn't want to overstress this topic or capture the thread. It's probably just a generic picture of the back and the actual devices might have one voltage clearly marked and even different fuse markings.

I found this funny nonetheless.

First thing I did. Seller is Linkplay/WiiM. As expected, no response.
