External PC power button with 1.8 m cable
The YARCHONN push-button switch extends the motherboard power header to a convenient desktop location. A blue LED indicates the on state while the 1.8 metre cable reaches around chassis obstacles. The unit mounts with pre-applied 3M adhesive and connects via standard POWER SW and POWER LED pins. It operates at 5 volts and draws up to 2 amps.
Suited for DIY builders and repair scenarios
Ideal for cases with broken front-panel switches, water-cooled builds with limited panel access, or any setup where the tower sits under a desk. The package includes a 1-to-2 splitter so the original case button remains functional alongside the external unit. Not intended for buyers who need a reset button, a momentary-contact switch, or a latching mechanism with tactile click feedback.
Sustained-operation behaviour
The switch is rated for continuous 24 watt load at 5 volts without thermal throttling. The PVC housing and plastic actuator show no deformation during extended use in typical indoor environments. The adhesive bond remains secure on clean, flat surfaces over long periods. No active cooling or duty-cycle limitation is required for normal PC power-on and power-off cycles.

Questions about this item
What motherboard headers must be free to connect the POWER LED+, POWER LED- and POWER SW plugs?
You need three adjacent front-panel pins — two for the LED pair and one for the power-switch signal — on a standard ATX header.
Can the original case power button stay connected while this external switch is installed?
Yes, the kit includes two 1-to-2 splitter wires so both the case button and the YR-250040DL1 switch operate the same motherboard pins.
How do I confirm the switch is wired correctly after sticking it to the desk?
Press the round button; the blue LED should light and the PC should power on or off depending on its current state.
