DKE Desktop Computer Power Switch Power Supply Control Adapter Cable 2M External PC Power Button ATX Desktop Computer Case Motherboard Switch On Off Power SW Cables, Black

This review is for the "DKE Desktop Computer Power Switch Power Supply Control Adapter Cable 2M External PC Power Button ATX Desktop Computer Case Motherboard Switch On Off Power SW Cables, Black".This switch has made my life a little easier. I no longer need to reach down my office desk to turn on my PC. This product has many small details I did not think about when I bought it. For example, the base of the switch is magnetic so it can stick against a metal surface. That said the package includes a small round magnetic sticker should you need it. The cord is long enough (about ~6 feet). Depending how you connect it to your motherboard, the switch can optionally light up when the PC is powered on. It also allows for the power button of your PC case to continue working alongside it.To summarize, the power switch works fine and is very convenient.

Easy to install works as stated and has a magnetic base to keep it in place. Highly recommend if your on/off button stops working and you are unable to find a replacement one. Before this I was having to put my computer to sleep or if the power went out and the computer turned off I would have to take the side glass off and reconnect the wires for the button as it would turn the computer on but after a minute or so would turn it off. So this little device save me a lot of hassle.

I know I could have made one myself with any number of switches, but it was convenient, works well, and cost less than a pack of batteries for my old remote control switch that would kill the battery every 3 months regardless of how little the button was even used. This has no batteries and the cable is long enough to reach my PC and place it conveniently, the LED is a pleasant ice blue color and isn't obnoxiously bright, and the switch is just a standard clicky blue keyboard switch that has a Cherry stem profile, so the key cap can even be swapped with any other cherry-compatible key cap if you want to personalize it.The magnet on the base is an incredibly strong neodymium magnet, too, so it will stay solidly in place when you stick it to something metal, whether that is your desk or one of the included adhesive-backed metal discs.

So I bought two of these for a "other room" remote PC setup. I ran a cat6a cable to the other location and soldered power button, (blue-white-blue, power LED (green, white green) reset button (brown, white brown) and HDD LED (orange, white orange) connectors to each level, and huse these buttons to power on and reset the actual PC 75ft away.I use one of these as a power button/power LED, and the other as a reset button / HDD LED.I had never seen anyone use an Ethernet cable for this before, so I decided to try it, and it works beautifully.The buttons work well. You have to hold for a half to one second to make them work. I think this is good, as it prevents accidental button presses (which would be rather annoying)The LED's are bright enough to be visible, but not so bright that they are super annoying in the dark. (Kudos for this, many peripheral manufacturers get this wrong, and sear our eyeballs with super bright LED's)The magnets are nice and strong, and allowed me to attach them to my metal monitor stand. They include adhesive backed round metal disks if you need to attach them to something that isn't metal.The included keycaps appear to be low profile, but I see no reason you couldn't put any Cherry MX compatible keycap you'd like on them.The only things I would change are as follows:1.) Doubleshot keycaps and transparent stems to allow for backlit keycaps.2.) An option for different LED colors. I'd love to have a green one for the power LED and an amber one for the HDD led.3.) Custom doubleshot caps with a power button symbol or reset symbol that can be backlit would be very nice.Either way, very happy with these.

I have my PC on a shelf near me but a bit hard to reach to turn on, not anymore. Handy and works well. Hey, if your gonna sit and do some lazy internet surfing or gaming, Go All Out!

Long enough cable. Easy to push onto MB pins. Button is very responsive when pressed. Button lights up when PC turns on. The magnetic sides are strong enough to stick together for mounting but not the strongest. They can easily be separated, and almost too easily. Still works just fine, though.All in all it's a solid product and if you need something like this then grab this on. I have had mine awhile now and It's still going strong. Pretty reliable little button.

I love that this is a mechanical keyboard switch. It is so satisfying to press each morning to turn my PC on and also to put my PC to sleep throughout the day. Almost so that I want to press it all the time haha. this has been a big quality-of-life upgrade. No more crawling under my desk to find the difficult-to-see and feel "on" button of the PC case. It wasn't too hard to install. You will need your motherboard manual to know what pins to tap onto. I had to make some changes to my configuration due to mine not being exactly a standard consumer PC. I do wish that it had a Y-splitter for both the LED and the Power-Switch (included Power-Switch splitter only). Not a big deal since I cannot really even see my PC case to notice the LED anyhow. I love this thing and I want more, but not sure what I would use more of them on... yet.
