Makes turning Raspberry Pi's on and off VERY EASY. Highly recommend.
I have purchased at least 3 to 4 sets of these guys and i highly recommend it. It makes for an easy on/off switch instead of having to unplug and replug the power cable on the Raspberry Pi. If you are a Raspberry PI user/tinkerer, I highly recommend it. Whats even better is that a couple of these plugs broken, and all it took was a quick email and replacements were sent my way. Excellent product, and excellent customer service.

Works well
Nice addition to a power supply for a Le Potato computer. Nice to not have to disconnect the USB cable.

Great Product, Counter-Intuitive Switch Action
Overall, these are great! Very effective way to add on/off power to an existing Micro USB cable. As more and more devices use this connector for power only, these are very handy. There was one thing that surprised me, though. The switch is ON when the button is OUT and Off when the button is pressed IN. This is totally counter-intuitive and it took me awhile to figure out what was going on. It doesn't impact the functioning of the switch, you just have to consciously think each time whether you're turning the power on or off.

Works perfect for Raspberry Pi 3 Model B, no under-voltage issues
Works perfect on my RPI 3 Model B, with no under-voltage issues, as what some people here have pointed out. However, I must note that I have no other USB peripherals running/drawing power, and also no case fans either. The only components connected are an HDMI cable, an ethernet cable, and of course the power adapter.

UNDERVOLTAGE
This causes the raspberry pi running Octoprint to report undervoltage. Without this, the raspberry pi runs fine.

The answer to my problems.
These days we have multiple devices and for some reason a lot of them just do not have an on/off switch. I'm using these neat little switches for the two Roku streaming players I have, as well as my Chromecast. It's so nice to not have them on constantly, wasting my electric. Not to mention less chance of damage from yanking the wires on and off all the time. Highly recommended.

Suffered too long without these!
I LOVE these switches! They are simple and plug right into place and solve the issue of having to manually unplug the power cord to my systems and then fishing around trying to replug the cord. I have mine set up in a stack of three so being able to see the power connectors means having to twist the whole stack around while twisting and fighting all the cords and connectors. Now I just click the button. I am so happy to have bought these.

Great idea. Work great
Love these. Use them for turning raspberry Pi’s on and off.. saves pulling my the plug all the time much more convenient. I’ve bought a couple 4 packs now and use them on all my Pi’s

No data pass-through and low voltage issues
These items don't pass data lines through, plus they produce low voltage issues.Not useful. Beware!
User
Low power warning on rpi when using these. Beware
I was happy when these arrived , was going to use with my raspberry pi 3b+ . Low power bolt warning shows on my pi when I use this. Wish I read the other reviews first
