Bought for use with a couple of Pis so that there would be less wear on the power socket on the board. When using with a Pi (B and 3B) on the B I see one raspberry in the top left corner of the screen as it boots, and I see an 'under voltage' message recurring throught the boot process on the 3B, suspect it's the LED on the switch. This occurred on two of the switches, I didn't bother trying the third.

I know this isn't an essential item, but I'm very glad I ordered it. It allows me to easily power my Raspberry Pi on and off without having to mess around with the cable or unplug it from the board.

A very satisfy click. Saves unplugging and re plugging the power cable in. It will reduce ware on the connector. When it wares out it will be hellishly to have it repaired. I wonder if they stock tethering cables cables as my P4 is shot because of this.

Button has a nice positive action and feels like it will last a long time. LED next to it showing if power is live is a bonus over other in-line switches I've used on Pi's.

Short and very functional, it helped with constant pulling and plugining back of the microUSB cable in my RasPi3.

This is such a good way to energise your pi. The build is very good and also the quality

Very easy to use and conveinent too, saves the hassle of ahving to remove the power and pulgging it in again. A life saver, I'd recommend to get this if you're looking to purchase a Pi of any kind
