sorted byNot quite long enough if you want it to be truly portable all day.
Also, many commenting on the battery failing within a year or so.
Doesn’t “clip” in either, so could fall out if knocked it seems…
Nice idea, almost bought, but needs refinement, hence why I think it’s been so heavily discounted.
Does this have power pass through me wonders?
Answered my own question by actually reading the little leaflet it the box!

Whilst it’s gonna be useful for music via Spotify, for me the real benefit will be things like announcements I’ve got from Home Assistant like garage doors opening and visitors on the driveway and front door.
I tested the Mission Base Stations with the new 5th Gen Echo Dot and the port input adapter on the back will not insert into the 5th Gen Echo Dot Unless you Dremel the slight lip recess on the rear.

I tested the 5th Gen Echo Dot on Both the white and black mission station bases and both of mine had a rear lip on the cutout, it seems to be ok on the 4th Gen, but on the 5th Gen, you may need to adapt/modify the rear lip on the cutout if you wish to use the battery bases with the new model!

Note: If you check the comments above you will see one person said their base worked fine, but I purchased 2 bases (1 white and 1 Black, both from Amazon, neither would work on my 5th Gen)

All the best
