      When a ControlBlock is attached to a Pi4, does the USB C connected to the ControlBlock power the ControlBlock and the Pi4? Or does the Pi4 still need to be powered?

        @GGA Hi! The USB C of the ControlBlock fully powers the Pi4. No other USB C should be attached to the Pi.

          @petrockblog Thank you for this. I wasn't sure and I couldn't find any direct information on it.
