    Is there such a thing as a USB charging port that also contains an on/off switch? I want to wire in a USB charging port that will go through an on/off switch. I want to be able to have a constant hot charging port and have the ability to turn it on or off. I know I can do this manually by using a toggle and a USB, but it would save me a slot if I can get it all in one switch.

    Would it not be "better" to add the constant power usb source and disconnect the plug for OFF?:burp:

    Rock... that is exactly the kind of thing that I am looking for. It looks like the lock nut may be a couple of mm on the wide side, but I can make that work. Its on the back anyway. I can drill a hole in one of the blanks. Thanks much!

    Pretty sure they make oem size switch blanks with usb outlets?

    Could be wrong, but that’s what I think.

    edit: ah…. Missed the all-in-one part.
