Hmmm, not really sure on the use case for this, my expectation was providing a state indicator for pCP... powered on or powered off, so external equipment can be turned off and on automatically at the same time as pCP, and that seems to be what it is doing, I cannot find the document the <more> link references. When I click on the gpio-poweroff button it asks if I want to reboot, click on yes and it saves the changes (even if no changes have been made) and reboots pCP, click on no and it saves the changes and warns you need to reboot at some time. This is on pCP V5 I've just reconfigured gpio-poweroff for GPIO2 and tested again, and that behaves the same as my GPIO17 test, I'm just using a multimeter to check for 3.3v on the various pins so real current draw, no doubt Greg is spot on with his advice re the gpio driving a switch rather than the fan itself.
