Mar 21, 2018 at 23:00 comment added SDsolar Alternately, in a terminal window you can issue this command: sudo init 0 - Runlevel zero means it is off. Always watch the lights to make sure it finishes flushing out any cached disk writes before turning off power to protect the file system.
Jun 26, 2016 at 8:29 comment added Dan V @Milliways I have to agree with Steve. Your wall outlet is rated even higher, not to mention some PSUs will spike from a no load situation. So if you plug in a hot PSU that does this, by by pi. Also to add, the socket may be rated at 10k, but it is the solder connections that usually break first at the board.

Jun 26, 2016 at 4:41 comment added Steve Robillard Do not just pull the cord it can cause SD card corruption and th Pi not to boot. Use the menu. If you need to disconnect the power (to reboot for example) the best practice is to disconnect it at the wall not the Pi (this avoids wear to the connector).
