[IDEA] On/Off switch

[CityCentreFox]

Good Evening

Been a user of moOde for a few years now and I am very happy with how it sounds.  I am currently using a IQaudio DAC with a raspberry pi 3B+ in a normal case that is stored at the back of my separates system with a 500gb hard drive attached.

I wish to place this setup in a full size hi fi case with a screen and power button to safely shut down the pi or just turn the screen off.  The pi is currently permanently on.

I have looked online at solutions but the only answers I am getting is basically no as I am using a DAC Hat so just turning the screen off with a switch might be a better option?  Also I don't need it to be a touchscreen only a display for artwork, track/album titles etc.

Is this possible.

Kind Regards

This add on will do what you want and provide protection from power-line faults.

It has been working faultlessly for me.

I've been using this on my setup and I'm quite happy with it.
