Know your gear
You need to know when your USB devices are receiving an acceptable and proper charge. You also need to know the power requirements of your PC, laptop, tablet, MacBook, Ultrabook or Chromebook, so you can determine which USB cables, hubs and chargers work most efficiency with them. This USB-A voltage/current tester connects between the USB source you wish to test and a connected USB device to determine the voltage and amperage.
You'll be able to quickly and accurately detect defective USB cables, chargers and ports in your various devices at home or on the go. Recommended for use with multiport USB chargers and hubs, this tester kit ensures each connected device is receiving the appropriate amount of power from its USB port. An easy-to-read LCD screen displays the voltage and amperage in real time. Dual LEDs indicate whether voltage or current is being displayed on the LCD.
The T050-001-USB-A requires no software or drivers to download and install and no connection to external power. It supports USB 3.1 Gen 1, but is also backward compatible with previous USB versions, so you can use it with USB 3.0, 2.0 and 1.1 ports and devices.
The compact unit is designed for convenient positioning within your reach, allowing you to monitor voltage and current while not taking up much workspace. It is also tiny enough to pack in your pocket, purse or laptop bag for use in a hotel, conference room, trade show or airport.

I would buy this product again
This has been a great tool to quickly determine if a USB port is putting out the correct power for devices.

Works well, only improvement would be a switch.
The "review headline" above basically says it. This is good, it works great for what I was looking for, screen output is clear, it's clear whether it's measuring amperage or voltage. The only thing is that you can't choose whether it's measuring amps or volts. While the unit is in use, it constantly cycles between the two... I did a little time trial and it's very close to 2.5 sec per screen. (Stays on volts for 2.5 sec, then goes to amps for 2.5 sec, then back to volts... etc.) Having a switch so that you can choose which one is displaying would be an improvement. However for the way it is designed it works great.

It's just what I have been looking for.
It provides me with the information I was looking for on USB ports and other products that have USB ports.
I am very satisfied with this product.

Handy tester
Nice way to monitor USB device's power. I do find it a bit hard to read - it could use a red filter over the display.
