Good products at a reasonable price with fast shipping.
2 items shipped both in good shape and working well. I thought I ordered the clear Pi3+ box but received the black one. Don’t know if I missed a color selection button on the page or if it was a mistake. In either case I am happy with the products and glad they shipped real fast so I could have them ready for my planned project.

Works perfectly to do a quick reboot of the Echo Dot in my truck.
My Chevy Silverado truck has a mobile wifi hotspot. I installed an Echo Dot in the cab. Sometimes when I start the truck the Dot is done searching for service before the truck's hotspot boots up. I used to have to unplug and replug in the Dot to get it to reboot. It was a hassle while driving. Now I just turn it off and back on again with the click of a button. Easy!I LOVE having Alexa in my truck. WELL worth the $20 per month to have my truck be a hotspot (with unlimited data). I stopped paying for SiriusXM. This is better. Except Alexa doesn't have NFL games like the other... but the other is SO expensive. Alexa is better.

Great way to control power to Raspberry Pi3b+
There isn't much to say regarding these small devices. They function as expected and the switch makes a nice audible click. Perfect to operate my Raspberry Pi3b+ single board computers. The four star rating is for the flawed engineering used by these and every plug/jack like it. They do not work for long without becoming stretched, causing intermittent connectivity. Yes, it is no fault of this seller's, but the word of the inferior connector design needs to be shared by any means. I abhor everything about iOS products EXCEPT their plug. It's two-sided and just doesn't fail.

Simple and easy
I use these for two things -- one as a power switch for my Raspberry Pi and the other for a RCA to HDMI converter. The Pi can only be turned on by pulling the plug then re-inserting it, this is a lot simpler and prevents the cord from falling behind the furniture when it's not in use. Same issue with the converter. Makes life simpler. Neither receive heavy use in my household but so far holding up great and surely easier on the connectors than repeatedly pulling and re-inserting them.

Simple and effective
There isn't much to say about this. It is simply a length of USB charge cable with an included on/off switch. It is useful for controlling the flow of electricity to anything that is powered by a micro USB. When used with a Raspberry Pi, you still have to shutdown safely via the OS instead of just unplugging it this cable just lets you cut the power after shutdown.

Wonderful
I ordered this item for my Raspberry Pi 3b+ and it has worked perfectly. I have been wanting to add a power button to my Pi since I have had it and their item is the perfect size so you can reach the button just like a normal pc power button. The item works just as it says and I haven't had any issues so far.

Works as intended. Very pleased.
Using with my roku which doesn't have a dedicated on/off button. Keeps me from having to unplug the micro usb power plug or the wall socket to shut it off. Works greatIf you don't shut off your Roku box it will continue to use valuable internet data. This switch makes it super easy to turn it on/off.

Works, but not without issues
It works fine, but doesn't work in conjunction with an LCD. If you use an LCD and Pi, you'll get the lightning bolt. Even if the power source works fine without the switch. Switched the power around, so now I have to power the LCD and Pi from two different power sources when using the switches. Also, it's hard to tell when the switch is on/off. You have to move the switch around a little, and if it moves then it's off. Annoying, but you get used to it.
