Great little device. Using it to control humidifier for mushroom growing. Superquick delivery.

This module implements something that should have been part of the USB specification from the start: The ability to turn power on or off to a connected device. An absolute must for "dumb" devices like USB powered fans or lamps to make them operable from a RP2040 or Arduino device. I'm currently using it to switch power to a WS3080 weather station that has a bug that makes it loose USB connectivity every once in while ;-) The module could be improved if solder eyes were provided in addition to the USB sockets - this would have saved me the extra USB cable currently required.

Excellent product but a pity they do not offer the three way control cable or a suitable connector for it. Regards Gerald

These are just so good if you want to switch any USB powered devices on / off. I liked them so much that I ordered more and even told my Dad about them. He ordered a bunch too. Work a treat with ESP32 and ESPHome.
