Works great for single board computers

I bought these to power off my Raspberry Pi without having to unplug the power cord. Always turn off the computer with the software before turning it off. I've seen comments that he doesn't have a slight hint of power. This isn't a problem for me as the Raspberry Pi has both a power indicator and Ethernet so it's easy to see if the power is on. The processing quality seems to be okay for the required purpose.

Pros
  • Handsfree
Cons
  • Modern

This is a switch. It turns on and off.

switch is literally a binary device. It has two states and the ability to "toggle" between them. Yes. these works. They open and close as they should. I don't know why "Transparency" and "Warmth" were chosen as properties deserving of a star rating, but I couldn't help but give both five stars. dad is alive.

Pros
  • Apparently that's all for now.
Cons
  • For the old

The basic need of the user "Pi ".

As the title suggests, if you use the Pi in any way, it's a blessing. The cable is strong and thick and can withstand a lot of movement. The switch itself feels comfortable and has a distinct click.

Pros
  • Fingers crossed
Cons
  • Approximately

This is a built-in switch. So.

Nothing to say except that it's been a few weeks now and it still works as intended. If not, is there a part I can exchange it for?

Pros
  • Pleasant to use
Cons
  • Very expensive

Good for your Pi! Don't screw up the Type-C connector!

Being able to turn off the power without constantly tugging on the Type-C connector is priceless. I don't know how your pis port will hold up without some kind of mod or something. I know there are better ones out there with uninterruptible power supplies or something, but it's awesome IMHO. I, too, was wiggling and unhooking the mini-HDMI connector by constantly tugging on the Type-C connector next to it. I was fine with leaving the Pi plugged in from time to time, but when it's off and a…

Pros
  • Done
Cons
  • Some problems

Makes a lot of things easier

A built in power button for your Pi helps in many ways, and these switches are great. We used one of these on a Pi (4b) powering a 3D printer. When you have a Pi connected to a 3D printer, it turns on the printer's display even when the printer is off. This gives you a chance to quickly end that connection so the screen isn't on all the time. Of course, this prevents remote access to the Pi without having to go upstairs and turn it back on, but so far it's been fine. It also gives you an easier

Pros
  • Very good value
Cons
  • Unbelievable price

Only useful for the Pi and with a very limited set of bricks.

I am adding an asterisk because these switches seem fairly standard and I assume they will work for the Raspberry Pis. However, the design isn't very useful as you still need a dedicated Raspberry Pi power supply. TL; DR: Your optional 18W phone chargers (PD) will not work with this. A non-Pi device will be confused at how much current it can draw and charge slowly. I would only suggest these for: 1) a Pi 4 power bank that doesn't have a switch 2) a (good and powerful) USB-A charger with a…

Pros
  • Great
Cons
  • Almost OK
