Plugable 240W USB-C Voltage and Amperage Meter for High Power Devices, Black

Bring precision and convenience to your USB-C power monitoring with the Plugable 240W USB-C Voltage and Amperage Meter (USBC-VAMETER3). This compact yet robust device, comparable in size to a USB flash drive, is designed to seamlessly integrate into your tech setup. It offers a comprehensive suite of features, including bidirectional USB testing and real-time monitoring of USB-C power and charging. With its ability to measure voltage and amperage, this meter also visualizes the directional flow of electrical current, providing you with detailed insights into your device's power consumption.

The USBC-VAMETER3 is engineered to connect inline between a USB-C host system such as a laptop, tablet, or smartphone and a charger, functioning effectively as both a USB voltage meter and a power consumption meter. Its updated OLED screen ensures a brighter, more legible display in any lighting condition, while the innovative orientation button allows you to flip the screen with a simple click for optimal viewing.

This transparent interposer is designed to be non-intrusive, ensuring it does not interfere with USB data (1.1 through 3.1 Gen 2), USB-C Alternate Mode video, or USB-C charging. It achieves this by tapping into the power (VBUS) and ground connections to measure values, leaving the data lines untouched. This makes it ideal for use with USB-C docking stations, chargers, and other USB-C accessories.

Common applications include monitoring charge information when connected between a USB-C host system and a charger or docking station, and measuring power draw from USB-C bus-powered accessories like external hard drives and flash drives. It is also useful for testing USB-C port spec compliance, such as checking for VBUS hot conditions or voltage drops under load.

Please note, while this meter is perfect for quick and easy measurements for users of any skill level, it is not intended to replace professional USB-C test equipment. Additionally, it is not compatible with Intel Thunderbolt 3 devices. Enhance your tech toolkit with the Plugable 240W USB-C Voltage and Amperage Meter, and gain valuable insights into your device's power dynamics.
