Summary

This is a little extension reset button for most Powerline and other electronics parts.
I made this one for the FRITZ! Powerline 500E, and after it is put into the device you will be able to press the reset button without needing a needle or a thin stick for pressing the reset button.

Tell me what you used it for!

We now have a little reset button that we can press without using a thin stick or similar. Remember, this can be used on other things where the reset button is hard to reach. You will most likely need some resizing though. Thanks for reading!</strong></p>
