Really rather not redecorate. Not sure it's helpful but as @Onoffquoted me. Yes our Internorm fingerprint sensor and connections caused all sorts of issues. As it was installed then the damn fingerprint sensor wouldn't work so Internorm had to come out and sort it. We ended up with this and I know the installation isn't great as it's only plasterboard). Ignore the various paint splodges from tester pots, we haven't decorated yet waiting for the painter to come (he is 9 months behind schedule)!

We have similar hatch in the ceiling of our utility room to access a bath water waste pipe. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does that matter? no it doesn’t matter, it means the 3.25 amp power supply will run cooler, as it’s not fully loaded Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does that matter? No that's actually a good thing. Current is drawn by the load not forced out by the supply. So the 1.67A is the current that the Echo will draw from the supply. The 3.25A is the current that the power supply could deliver without getting unhappy. In effect the Echo will only be giving the power adaptor an easy life.
