      I need to use USB-C port on rpi4 in OTG mode. And I want to plug cable in and out keeping the board alive. Is it possible to achieve using a PowerBoard?

        @tsarevfs Hi, unfortunately, the PowerBlock does not provide this capability because it does not loop through the data lines of the USB connector.
