Review: It really does work! - THIS CABLE ACTUALLY WORKS!!! Hey everyone, I purchased this without reading the reviews. Like some stated, I received the message “sufficient power”. I came back to read the reviews and found out you must charge the Firestick before using the cable. I charged the Firestick and tried the cable again, but still received the same message of insufficient power. I initiated an desertcart return of the cable, but then decided to try to use the cable on my other Firestick. This tv is a 75in LG 4k smart TV purchased in 2018 (of note, the TV is unable to connect to the internet, so a friend suggested I purchase a FireStick for internet connectivity instead of repairing or replacing the tv……this tv has a BEAUTIFUL picture for sports and movies.). Amazingly, the cable worked. The Firestick on this tv had been plugged into the wall for two weeks prior to me switching to the cable. It’s been 3 days and so far it’s still working. I am going to purchase another cable for the other Firestick that’s on an older (9-10 yo) 65 in Samsung 4k smart tv to see if it will work. That Firestick has been plugged into the wall for about a week, so I am hoping it will work.
Review: Worked when I used the correct USB port on TV - The Fire Cable works with my “desertcart Fire TV 4K streaming device (newest model)” and Samsung 55-inch Class OLED 4K S90D TV. At first it did NOT work until I utilized the correct USB port. When I first set up the Fire Cable with the Fire TV stick it did NOT work and I received the message that others received that there was not enough power to the Fire TV stick and I need to utilize the included wall cord and plug. “Insufficient USB power detected. Use the included USB cable and desertcart power adapter for proper operation”. I did as instructed, plugging the Fire TV stick into the wall and removing the Fire Cable. I then proceeded to set-up the Fire TV stick with all my streaming services, WiFi, etc… I came back to desertcart ready to setup a return of the Fire Cable and purchase the following device “Made for desertcart, USB Power Cable (Eliminates the Need for AC Adapter) at 2.5x the cost. Well, I watched the first video review of this product listing and found out I did NOT need to make a return but rather utilize a different port on the back of my TV. Yippee! https://www.desertcart.com/gp/product/B078KSHVCS/ref=ox_sc_act_title_2?smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER&psc=1 I watched this video from “JUST A DAD” named “desertcart Fire TV Stick & USB Power Cable Adapter Review” and he explained that the cable purchased to do away with using the cord for the wall plug that you must have a certain amount of Volts (5.0 Volts = 1.0 Amp) for it to function. He explained that on the back of the TV there might be 2 different USB outputs as such 1x USB 5V = 500mA and 1x USB = 1 Amp which my Samsung does have. It appears I originally utilized the 1x USB 5V = 500mA port and this is why my Fire Cable did not function. I then redid the setup by plugging in the Fire Cable USB connector into the other USB port 1x USB 5V = 1 Amp and it worked beautifully. So before you return or discard the Fire Cable or any other adapter you might have purchased you should check to see which USB port you have plugged the Fire Cable into and if enough power is being supplied from the USB port to your Fire TV stick. Please see photo for my setup. Hope that helps some people with the similar situation as I had when I first setup the Fire Cable with my desertcart Fire Stick.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: What makes this different from any of the many 6-12" micro-usb cables available for about $5 or less?**
A: In a word: "nothing."

The longer the cord, the more power-loss you get. So if you can find a 6-12" cord for $3 that's not super-low quality, it'd work just as well as this over-priced cord.

**Q: Will this power the fire TV unit?**
A: Plugged it into a 2013 Panasonic Viera plasma (the last one Panasonic made), bootstrapped the Fire Stick, and a warning came on asking me to connect the AC adapter. Ignored the warning, and it is working fine. So far. I will eventually use this to charge my Fire tablet and other small devices from an electrical outlet, and I'll connect the AC adapter for the Fire TV despite the cable clutter. This short cable has some utility outside of Fire TV. For under $5, it's worth having. I'd be upset if I'd paid $5.01.

**Q: why do you have to buy this while it’s not giving power connections thru usb and fire tv stick**
A: You should use the power wall wart since USB ports are underpowered for the stick. Besides, when the TV is off, the USB is dead so the stick is dead whereas with the wall power, the stick is always on and doesn't need to wait for a cold boot.

**Q: The usb on my tv says it is 500ma, so it looks like that would not be sufficient. is that correct?**
A: USB ports on televisions only have enough power for usb thumb drives. This is what they are intended for. Plugging in things like fire sticks and LED strip lights into the tvs USB ports may sometimes work, you are at great risk of overloading the circuits and permanently damaging you television. For safe operation use the fire sticks AC adaptor as directed.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ I can’t see the advantage
*by K***N on February 18, 2025*

I cannot see it being any better than a regular cable. It does the job and is not defective. I just can’t justify buying this over any other USB cable.
