Description
This USB Type-C extension cable adds an inline power switch to your setup, so you no longer need to pull the connector out of your device every time you want to power up, power down or reset. The switch sits in the middle of the lead and has a solid click-on, click-off action with an LED indicator to show when power is running.
The cable runs from a USB Type-C socket to a USB Type-C plug, giving you a straightforward extension with the switch built in. At 27.5cm including connectors, the lead is short enough to keep things tidy while placing the switch neatly beside your device. The 4mm cable diameter keeps it flexible, and the whole thing weighs just 18g.
This updated version works with the latest Quick Charge and Power Delivery mains adaptors, so it keeps up with faster charging standards. It suits the Raspberry Pi 4 Model B, along with laptops, tablets, smartphones and plenty of other USB-C devices. If you regularly switch a single-board computer or charger on and off, an inline switch like this saves wear on your ports and makes the routine much quicker.
