Why does it take a 'knock-off' product of sorts, to resolve the simplest and worst technical engineering blunders of all time? The Raspberry Pi systems not having a basic on/off switch - is just stupidity. Well, this solves that problem.

Power on power off
I use this for my Bluetooth speakers that I use for sound on my laptop. It is a pain to plug it in every couple of days and to remember to keep my eyes on the power levels. It's always plugged up whenever I need power just click it on.

Turns your PI 4 on and off, no power problems
I had purchased a similar device for a Raspberry PI 3 and saw the power lightening bolt going on and off in Kodi. I am very happy with the quality of the push button, solid, and the fact that I don't have power issues with this cable. It's great if you're using your PI with Kodi or a desktop.

Works for my wireless charger.
Works for my need to cut power to my wireless charger on my vehicle that’s attached to a cigarette usb that’s always hot. Allows me to turn off my wireless charger without the need to keep unplugging it.

I take the blame for why I gave it a low review. It didn't work for me. But the reason...
is I didn't realize it was a power only cable. My need for these was to go between a Raspberry Pi # or 4 and connect it to a Rasoberry Pi Pico.It dutifully turns the power on or off, but when on no data is flowing over the data channels. I I have put it to use on. a different need. I blame myself because the info was most likely in the description of the product details. I just saw the needed connectors and had desired a power switch.Not good for me, but might be exactly what you need. Just double check the cable's capacity.The worst part of my story above is I was finding that I had many dying USB A M to USB Micro M cables. I tested them and most ancient ones that came with some portable speaker or other consumer product no longer fully functioned. So I ordered a bunch of cables to refresh the supply of working, known good cables. Examined needs and ordered a set of something here, and a pair with different colors there, and some MAINS to 5V wall warts. I ordered an array of different cables, quality, length, some reinforced. I had a debugging problem but needed a cable with data and power. All that arrived that day were these. Patience is a virtue I am told.

too much voltage drop due to high resistance
Had to remove the power switch because the Pi-4b keeps displaying low voltage warnings. The power supply is delivering 5.1 vdc. Noticed that the current (pun intended) official power supplies have the switch built in and not add on. Notes: 1) I have a dual bay HDD attached DAS running a RAID-1 array with it's own 2 amp 5 vdc power supply. The Pi-4b machines are delivering NAS services to my network. 2) I have two Pi-4b machines, each with a RAID-1 array, 3) The 4 wall warts have been replaced with an Amazon provided PHEVOS 5V 12A 60Watt Universal Switching Power Supply for Raspberry PI - which continues to deliver 5.1 vdc, so the problem cause is not the power supply.
