Wall Mounting An Amazon Echo Dot 3rd Gen

[@Mary.Mercedes]

You seem to have a WAY above average positive sunscriber base. Rare to see a negative comment like I read here today. I love that you and your wife are genuine and real. I watch ALL your videos, and even click on the ads too hopefully so you get some benefit. Of course, you know that when you hit 100K you will be seeing huge growth. Slow and steady wins the race. Your numbers keep climbing up there. I would love to see you do a video on all your filming, lighting and other equipment for the channel. (I have been seriously thinking of doing my own channel for some years now.)

I have the best subscribers on KZbin. Last December I had an amazing month and received an email from KZbin saying the reason for the huge increase in revenue was they had started running much higher paying adds against my videos. I guess at a certain number of views ( I hit 12 million since starting last month ) they move you up the ladder. It was a pleasant surprise as I was starting to think it wasn't worth my time. I just have a Cannon SL2 that I use for the videos and a couple lights that I have made videos of already. I use the low end Corel Video Studio that was only $40.00 for editing and had to buy a Blue microphone for voice overs. This year I plan on getting into 4k and hopefully the increased revenue will pay for the equipment needed. I will be your first subscriber if you decide to jump in. Plan on spending a lot of time for the first couple years with very little in return and negative comments from occasional trolls.

Hey big guy , I really enjoy your Chanel , I just wanted to to give you a little tip . When your drilling a hole in drywall like that , just put your drill in reverse , it makes it much easier to control and it also won't kill any wiring if it should happen to be together ! Keep up the great content my friend .

[@unemployedredneckhillbilly2023]

Thanks. I will have to try that with the other mount. Thanks for watching.

[@juliuspatrick2899]

i guess it's kind of off topic but do anyone know a good website to stream newly released movies online?

[@janetleeharrison]

That's the coolest thing! Super smart idea for use as an intercom & for emergencies. No matter the occupant's ages or health condition, everyone should consider this for their home & workshop/garage. Great video, thanks for giving us ideas!

[@unemployedredneckhillbilly2023]

Thanks. We have them in almost every room now. They are great intercoms, control the lights, play music, provide reminders, can answer most questions, and many other things. Many people are worried about privacy but we actually love them and use them constantly. This mount gets them out of the way. Thanks for watching.

[@unemployedredneckhillbilly2023]

You can even set up the display ones as an video intercom between homes or with elderly parents in nursing homes.

[@BostonRocks76_Carmen]

I have two Echo Dots, but I didn't know about the wall mount. Thank you for sharing and teaching me something new. God Bless! Carmen

[@unemployedredneckhillbilly2023]

This is nice for getting them out of the way. Thanks for watching.

[@eynivia]

Your video showed up in my Google Discover feed. I love my Alexa and echos. I too have them in each room and that intercom feature it's great.

[@unemployedredneckhillbilly2023]

We switched from Google devices to the echos when the google devices quit working properly after updates. The Alexa devices are much more stable and really work great. We really like the video drop in on the shows. Thanks for watching.

[@TheNakidGardeners]

Oh that is nice. Did not know Amazon had something like this. Thanks for sharing.

[@unemployedredneckhillbilly2023]

It's a easy way to hide an echo dot. Thanks for watching.

[@simonyovino2126]

I died laughing at 4:18 when you dropped that bracket. It made such a good noise. Metal things are always so unreasonably loud when they're dropped.

[@unemployedredneckhillbilly2023]

The new laminate flooring makes everything loud and echoey. Thanks for watching.

[@KeyserTheRedBeard]

incredible upload Unemployed Redneck Hillbilly Creations. I smashed the thumbs up on your video. Maintain up the high-quality work.

[@unemployedredneckhillbilly2023]

Thanks. This has worked out really good and most people don't even notice it. Thanks for watching.

[@sweetpea9433]

As always great job, thanks for sharing

[@unemployedredneckhillbilly2023]

Thanks for watching.

[@mrsnuffleuppagus24]

Can you elaborate on the parts you bought to make this in-wall rated cable.

[@unemployedredneckhillbilly2023]

I spliced in some old CL2 / CL3 rated spesker wire I had. They say just don't go with the new soy based plastic insulation some pass off because rodents love to eat it. Thanks for watching.

[@m3rdpwr]

Nice little piece. I never like making permanent holes though. lol I like the broadcast feature myself to announce dinner. I have an origianl tall echo, 2 gen 1's, 1 gen 2, 2 gen 3's and a show 5. (I got 2 for 99 cents each plus $9 for 3 months music and cancelled after. Not worth it.) 2 are still in the box. lol Yes, I have a problem. :)

[@unemployedredneckhillbilly2023]

I had nothing but problems with the Google devices after the updates last Nov and replaced them with the echo shows, echo dots and a big echo on the black Friday sale. Alongside the smartthings hub they all work great and we love them. Everything is getting automated and I am having fun. They keep getting smarter all the time. I saved the cutout so it can be patched back in if needed someday. Thanks for watching.

[@zbonugli]

How did you connect the power cable? I plan on installing this on the ceiling next to a bathroom exhaust fan.

[@unemployedredneckhillbilly2023]

I made the cable longer splicing in in wall rated wire. Thanks for watching.

[@cacook76]

@@unemployedredneckhillbilly2023 so did you have to run it to a wall plug? I’m not the handiest but trying to see something.

[@littlesleepyheadsleepykid5603]

Where do you get those jacks to make your own fire rated wire

[@unemployedredneckhillbilly2023]

I just reused the plug I cut off and soldered it then heat shrink. just a short stub that's out of the wall. You can buy plugs on Amazon if you search. Thanks for watching.

[@brodydog8447]

Where did you get the jacks to make your own cable?

[@unemployedredneckhillbilly2023]

Search on amazon. Thanks for watching.

[@olivier2553]

And now Amazon is spying on you in your bathroom... You need a camera there too :)

[@unemployedredneckhillbilly2023]

Let them, they will not hear much in there. No cameras in the dots. Your cellphone spies even worse. Thanks for watching.

[@mountainviewturning5319]

Very nice

[@unemployedredneckhillbilly2023]

Thanks for watching.

[@huuchon4745]

Great job

[@unemployedredneckhillbilly2023]

Thanks for watching.

[@chris3m98]

You need a Walabot stud finder, it show water,wire,cables

[@unemployedredneckhillbilly2023]

Had to look that up. That would be really nice to have. Thanks for watching.

[@Mary.Mercedes]

HAHAHAhee. Your wife is hysterical! Amazing how some people want to pass judgement on your life choices instead of moving on, isn't it?

[@unemployedredneckhillbilly2023]

She didn't know that I was making a video. I have cried wolf too many times on that thing and that's the price I pay. She didn't want that in the video and said people would think she was terrible. I don't follow directions well. We all have to adapt to the future or be left behind. Thanks for watching.

[@tranthiduyen615]

Tuyệt vời quá anh ơi

[@unemployedredneckhillbilly2023]

Thanks for watching.

[@dirty_863]

Looks awesome but sounds muted! Like she's in a box.... Well she kinda is I guess.

[@unemployedredneckhillbilly2023]

It actually sounds better in the box. Thanks for watching.

[@littlesleepyheadsleepykid5603]

Where do you get those jacks to make your own fire rated wire????

[@mishalea]

I surprised you want big brother listening in... 😬 I know I know, our cell phones are just the same. Hopefully you dont get that creepy laughing that was reportedly to happen spontaneously at night!!😳

[@unemployedredneckhillbilly2023]

The only creepy noises we get at night come from me 😯. We love the benefits of these units and really have nothing to hide. The future is here. Thanks for watching.

[@eynivia]

@Misha Lea my son had the same concern about big brother. Then he saw the benefits of the devices and was hooked, he went so fast as to gift us the smart plugs so we no longer walk into a dark room or dark home when we're out.

[@Guillotines_For_Globalists]

7:23 HAHAHAHAHAHA

[@unemployedredneckhillbilly2023]

She didn't know I was videoing it. I have been crying wolf too much on this thing and being paid back. Thanks for watching.

[@GotuwanPankshin]

Why in the world would you want one in the bathroom?

[@unemployedredneckhillbilly2023]

Intercom, light control, news, and music. Thanks for watching
