Chromecast power plug is annoyingly long

Lynathche — Wed, 01 Mar 2023 21:38:33 GMT

My Chromecast plug is so annoying. It's too big to fit in behind my TV in the sockets there because it's too big for the gap. It also can't fit in the sockets behind my TV base units without having to move the units way out from the wall so the cable isn't bent and likely to break which looks so silly in the room. I've checked the tech specs and can't find what watt plug I need to get a less imposing plug for it. Anyone know what watt plug is needed or can recommend a substitute?

@Lynathche

We use a grounding adapter like the one below at Home Depot for one of our Nest Hubs where the electrical outlet is crowded due to another adapter:

Or you could consider a short extension cord like the one below:
