How to Install Equinox Kodi Build for Firestick

In this guide, we will demonstrate how to install Equinox build on Kodi Krypton 17.6 using the Genie Wiz wizard. We’ve included a series of screenshots that will guide you step by step through the process.

Equinox is an amazing build and a worthy addition to your Kodi. The build is simple to use and offers a massive collection of addons including Neptune Rising, Maverick TV, Supremacy Sports, BoB Unleashed, Gears TV, and Planet MMA. Whether its movies, TV shows or sports, Equinox has it all.

Although the build is moderately heavy, it surprisingly works well with most streaming devices including Amazon Firestick.

Attention Kodi Users:

Government authorities and ISPs are increasing monitoring user’s online activities. If found streaming copyrighted material, you can end up in serious legal trouble. Luckily, with a good VPN you can hide your online activities and stay safe and secure when online.After testing multiple VPNs, we found ExpressVPN to be the best VPN for Kodi. The VPN provides ultra-fast connections making it perfect for video streaming. ExpressVPN comes with a 30-day money-back guarantee and you can get 3-months free and save 35% on their annual plan.

Note: Make sure to enable Unknown Sources under System Settings to allow for installation of third-party addons.
