{"title":"OnOff SHIM","handle":"onoff-shim","url":"/products/onoff-shim","description":"\n  Add a tiny yet convenient power switch to your Pi with OnOff SHIM!\nOur SHIMs (Shove Hardware in the Middle) are a new range of boards designed to be small, affordable, and handy. They're just 0.8mm thick (the bare board, not including mounted components) and designed to be soldered straight onto the GPIO pins of your Pi, if you wish, so that you can use them with HATs and pHATs on top.\nUsage\nJust plug your micro-USB power supply into the micro-B connector on OnOff SHIM, and then press the button once&nbsp;to switch on power and boot up your Pi. After installing our software (details below), you can press and hold the button for one second to initiate a clean shutdown and&nbsp;completely cut the power to your Pi.\nFeatures\n\nsuper-small SHIM-format board\n0.8mm thick PCB\ncan be used with HATs and pHATs\ncorner-mounted push button for on/off\nmicro-B connector for power supply\nred status LED\noptional breakout pins to connect an external momentary button\n2x6 female header included\nsupports up to 2.5A power supply\nsoftware daemon to shutdown cleanly\nrequires soldering\n\nSoftware\nWe've put together a one-line-installer to install the clean shutdown daemon. It watches the state of BCM pin 17 and, when pulled low (pressed), it initiates a clean shutdown. Last thing, just before your Pi shuts down, BCM pin 4 is pulled low to completely cut power to your Pi.\nTo install the software, open a terminal and type curl https://get.pimoroni.com/onoffshim | bash to run the one-line-installer.\nOur software does not support Raspbian Wheezy.\n\n","vendor":"Little Bird","product_type":"physical","in_stock":true,"options":[],"variants":[{"id":6709,"title":"Default Title","sku":"PR-PIM269","price":14.45,"compare_at_price":0.0,"on_sale":false,"in_stock":true,"available_quantity":2,"option1":"Default Title"}]}
