Joey Does Tech gives a quick overview & review of the PLD USB-C Meter

PLD-USBCM63: USB-C Volt/Current meter
Robust inline USB-C meter with PC data link and external power.
- Supports new 28V USB-C levels and bidirectional
- Onboard LCD display showing volts, amps, and direction
- PC Data link and power via USB-Mini connector for robustness
- OSD shows volts/current graph with high sample rate (~20sps) to catch transient glitches
- Is always on, no need to plug in to the device, or wonder if it's working
- Does not interfere with the USB-C current draw value because it sources power via the USB-Mini lead
- No need for DC PSU any more for most tasks with everything using USB-C converter cables
- Macbooks via USB-C
- iPhones via Lightning
- Magsafe 1, 2 and 3
- PC Laptops using multi-connector lead
- USB Mini, and Micro available too for Android phones
- ... and probably more. Won't be long before your DCPSU is nothing more than for injection shorts-finding!
- What's included?
- USB-C Meter, shrinkwrapped
- USB-A to Mini lead for data & power for the meter
- OSD software
- What do you have to supply?
- USB C power brick ( we like the Apple ones )
- USB C to USB C cable ( again, the Apple ones seem good )
- USB C to ... what ever connector you need
