I somehow feel itchy powering up and down by plugging in and pulling the cord. Hopefully the power interruption won’t hurt the hardware. Is there a better way? I am getting a weather resistant power strip for it.
Just 20 minutes ago I was researching how to add a power switch to the XT60 connector (because I cringe every time I need to pull the plug and put it back in and hear a pop). I found this on eBay which looks like the best option. I’m going to order one and give it a try but it will be a few weeks to get it. I haven’t found another place (i.e, Amazon) to find this particular style.
Nice! There seem to be a few on Amazon, but they are just pigtails (thus far in my search) The power out of the transformer is 24V 5.0 amp 120 watt.
Need to look into antispark connectors, like XT90 but mainboard connector would need to be changed as would the DC power connector
I use one of these
Which is nice for resetting it or turning it off. Pulling the plug will absolutely not hurt it though
