New owner. New boat 30s. We brought our Amazon Fire stick with power adapter but we can’t figure out how to connect the Jenson TV over the dinette. There is 1 HDMI port but it has an adapter plugged in that has a splitter that has 2 incoming HDMI cables. We assume this is somehow connected to the electronics at the helm? But there is nowhere to plug the fire stick in. Any suggestions? We can go buy another adapter or something but are afraid to disconnect anything (can’t imagine that we need to see the helm stuff on the tv? ). Thanks in advance

Looking forward to this conversation. I just bought the AWS Firestick and optional USB electric supply. I have a Majestic TV (factory?) on my 2017 Ranger25SC and hope to install the Firestick to access Netflix, Amazon Prime and maybe HULU local TV stations via my California COX WiFi router (in my dock box) and Personal Hotspot when out on the water. I have some type of digital sphere (with a blue light) up in the mast but can’t seem to figure out how to get stations on the Majestic TV.

Most TV sets made recently made have more than one HDMI input. Most Jensen models have two. You might have to dismount the TV and have a thorough look. The designers can get very creative.
Sometimes there is also a USB port that can power a streaming stick. That only woks sometimes because on occasion the stick may draw more current than the USB port can supply. Worth a try for the convenience.
I have the Majestic TV, which has 3 HDMI ports. I use the ROKU stick, works great.
