Ooh, one thing that can be very useful for this is sending USB wakeup packets. I have an HTPC under my TV and game controllers (PS4, Xbox) at my coffee table and there is no way to wake up the PC with those over Bluetooth so I have to keep it on and idling at all times, wasting electricity.

If you have a wired connection to the box you should be able to use wake on lan from a phone (this is what I used to do, now homeassistant took over this responsibility).
