What type of power cable does the HomePod mini use?

Apple has released a new, smaller version of their speaker: HomePod mini.

One of my complaints with the original HomePod was its use of a proprietary power cable connector, which made it difficult to replace or shorten the cable. Most other Apple devices use industry-standard C7 "figure 8" power cables for mains wall power, or a USB-C or Lightning cable plus a power adapter.

What type of power cord does the HomePod mini use?

The Apple sales page does not contain a single photo of the power cord. It's as if they want you to think it doesn't have one...

I used that page's "AR" feature on my iPhone to view a virtual version of the HomePod mini on my table. I had to walk around to the other side of the table, then took a screenshot.

The AR HomePod mini appears to use the same round, proprietary, non-removable power cable as the original HomePod.

The cable length is six feet and it’s powered by the same small 20 W adapter as the iPad Pro ship with. Same size as the older 18 W adapter which will not work except to give an awesome safe red glow to the orb. So the mini has a cable fixed in the orb, that ends in a USB-C connector.

The adapter directly plugs into the wall 20 W USB-C adapters

The tech specs say 20 W power adapter and the published efficiencies table lists 100 / 115 / 230 V input.

Two things to remember, all cords are removable and all machines generate smoke if you are sufficiently equipped and motivated.
