      @cnoto For the ONOFFSHIM I used the default setup, proposed by Pimoroni. For the complete powercut you either need a systemd file or you set a dtoverlay to /boot/config.txt

      You can take a look here to this tutorial

      @VaultDweller did you look at the booklet that came with the case? If you lost yours I remember another post around here with the instructions, if I can find it...

      Ehm, I don't recall, and I don't feel like opening up my cab right now.

      But I don't think it matters much. You will need to use a transistor able to supply current needed by your fan, which likely will be most of them.
      Have a look at this article for some more background.

      @flop said in Fan GPIO and code control:

      If your fan makes much noise, you could change the GPIO voltage pin of 5v to 3.3v!.

      i dont think thats a good idea....fan draws too much current....
