Replacement power switch

[Topher]

@Popcorn did you have to do any modding to the pololu switch in the case?

The Pololu switch is the electronic switch for my graceful shutdowns. Its not a physical switch so no modding is done on it. Is that what you mean?

I'm sorry I didn't look at your wiring schematic close enough. I thought you were using the pololu as the physical switch. My bad.

I broke mine too. So I bought this one. It fits except you have to dremel the height of thr switch by a couple mm to fit properly into the case and the plastic flip switch button cover. Not hard to do.

Which posts did you solder?

All three (there's six total but only using one side). The OFF pin to GPIO27. Common ground to SW GND on my Pololu. And the ON pin to other side of SW on Pololu.

Using wermy's equipment, do you know which posts i would need to connect? I got the same switch, just need to connect it.

Do you think there would be a problem with using this switch?

Or should I get a few that have the 6 pins?

Using Wermy guide (without graceful shutdown) you wire the off post (far left, with the pins facing closest to you) and the middle GND post to EN and GND of the Powerboost respectively.
