Power Latest Fire Stick from TV USB Ports

The latest Fire Stick requires a separate power adapter (included) in order to be used as a fully functional Fire Stick. However, for those that still want to power their new Fire Stick through their TV USB port – you can! The new Fire Stick requires around 1 amp of power –the equivalent of 2 USB 2.0 ports. Therefore, you will need a cable with male 2x USB a ports to USB Micro-B ports. The StarTech 1 foot or 3 feet cable works perfectly.

As long as you have 2 available USB 2.0 ports on your TV, the Fire Stick will power on and fully function just as it would with the included power adapter. This also means each time your TV is on or off, your Fire Stick will be as well.
