Hello All, This is just a friendly reminder to read the Forum Charter where you wish to post before posting in it. :)
Hi all, The AutoSave Draft feature is now disabled across the site. The decision to disable the feature was made via a poll last year. The delay in putting it in place was due to a bug/update issue. This should serve as a reminder to manually save your drafts if you wish to keep them. Thanks, The Boards Team.

So your Raspberry Pi / Arduino / other small computer has NO "on / off" button

    This excludes the Raspberry Pi ZERO btw. (it has a specific requirement for a 3.3 volt power supply unlike the rest of the range of Pi's which use 5 volts which most smartphone recharging power cells will supply)

    Look in the smartphone shops for a generic android smartphone recharger power cell - one with its own on / off button. This button becomes the on - off power button for the Raspberry Pi.

    To clarify what I mean, I've posted a YouTube video:
