What a USB Power Meter Tells You

A USB power meter sits between a charger and a device and shows the voltage, current, and actual power being delivered. It turns an invisible charging problem into something you can measure.

It is especially useful when two chargers or cables look interchangeable but behave differently. Instead of guessing which part of the chain is limiting the charge rate, you can see what is actually happening.
