Works, convenient power on/off for Raspberry Pi devices

I use these switch cables to power my various Raspberry Pi Single Board PCs. I don't notice the voltage drop that others report, but then I'm fed from a fixed 5VDC, 12A fused power rail rather than wall power supplies. I won't be using the switches very often, so I'm not sure I'll have any durability issues! The time will show.

Pros

Features: One-click power on/off with significantly reduced wear and tear on sensitive MicroUSB ports; No need to pull the cord to turn off or restart the device, just press the button to turn it on or off. Prevents wear and tear on the USB connector from frequent unplugging and plugging of the USB cable.

Cons
