        @spruce_m00se this is something like that. Not sure what good it is for on the pi unless he was somehow able to make it function as a power button or something like that

          These guys still have 7 of them at $19.99+ shipping which is in line with what I paid for mine on eBay back when I did my build. Not sure about their reputation though. Some have said good and bad about them.

            @obsidianspider shirtpunch's shipping is a little slow but warranty is the best you will ever find. One of our genesis hubs was bad and they said to keep it and they immedietly sent a new one out. We got them on sale for $7.99. It was awesome.

              @spruce_m00se with the right configuration it will act as a power button for the PI.

                      Thats brilliant, I knew it was a smartphone button, hadnt seen the script, im buying some as we speak for my kodi boxes.

                      I will use that script on my atari 2600 build to shut down! brilliant.

                        @obsidianspider no big man. Didn't know about those until this post honestly. Very cool build.

                            @XVO That's actually not too terrible since it comes with controllers (assuming they work well).
