I think an USB controllable USB hub might be more handy.
- riedel 3y agoThere are already off the shelf hubs that support power control: https://github.com/mvp/uhubctl https://github.com/mvp/uhubctl
- dividedbyzero 3y agoI tried to get one (USB3, 4ports, not too pricey) earlier this year, but all the qualifying ones on the list there were either discontinued or had been updated and weren't individually switchable anymore. It's a pity because this would be so handy.
