Type-C USB Power Meter Tester – Color Display, PD 3.1, QC 3.0, Fast Charge Protocols
Need to know exactly what's going on between your USB-C power source and your device? The Type-C USB Power Meter Tester has you covered. Whether you're debugging a fast-charging setup, validating USB-C PD profiles, or just want to make sure your power bank is delivering what it promises, this compact meter delivers detailed, real-time stats on voltage, current, power, capacity, and more — all with a vibrant full-color display.
This little guy isn't just for basic voltage checks — it supports a full suite of charging protocols including PD3.1 (yes, the 48V kind), QC2.0/3.0, PPS, FCP, SCP, PE, VOOC, and others, making it a universal tool for USB-C gear. Flip through six different interface screens showing live data or cumulative charging stats. Curious about spikes or drops? Pause the live curve graph and zoom into the action with a long press.
Its IPS color display rotates automatically thanks to a built-in gravity sensor, so you can read it no matter how it's plugged in — or lock the screen orientation if you prefer. With professional-grade measurement accuracy (±0.1%), support for up to 600W power monitoring, and dual-direction current sensing, this tool punches well above its weight.
Features:
- All-in-One Protocol Support: Monitors PD3.1/PD3.0/PD2.0, PPS, QC3.0/2.0, FCP, SCP, PE, VOOC, and more.
- Professional Accuracy: ±0.1% precision for voltage/current readings — ideal for serious testing.
- Color Display, Multiple Views: Six pages of detailed stats including live voltage/current curves, power history, CPU temperature, and peak tracking.
- Auto-Rotating Display: Gravity sensor auto-rotates the screen in 4 directions — no upside-down numbers here.
- Real-Time Curve Graphing: See voltage/current changes over time. Pause/resume for focused analysis.
- Compact and Durable: Just 43mm x 25mm x 10mm — toss it in your toolkit and go.
Technical Specs:
- Input Voltage: 4.5–50V DC
- Current Range: 0–6A (12A peak)
- Power Range: 0–600W

- Sampling Resistance: 0.001Ω
- Power Consumption: <0.15W
- Interface: USB-C Male to Female
- Temperature Monitoring: Onboard CPU temp
- Display: IPS Full-Color LCD
- Control: Dual-button navigation
- Size: 43 x 25 x 10mm
Whether you're engineering a new USB-C product or just a curious tinkerer keeping your gadgets in check, this tester gives you the data to make smart decisions.
Note: While this meter handles high-power scenarios, always verify your cables and connections are rated appropriately for the job.
Jargon buster
Plain-language definitions for the technical terms used above.
- Gravity
- Gravity is DFRobot’s plug-in connector system for sensors, motors and modules, using standard cables to reduce loose jumper wiring. It matters because Gravity-compatible parts can connect directly to these ports, while non-Gravity parts may need adapters or manual wiring.
- IPS
- IPS is a type of LCD panel that keeps colours and contrast more consistent when viewed from an angle. This matters for small displays that may be mounted in a dashboard, handheld project, or enclosure where the viewer is not always looking straight on.
- LCD
- LCD stands for liquid crystal display, a screen technology that uses a backlight and liquid crystals to show images or text. It matters because LCD modules usually need a display driver and enough controller pins or a bus interface to send image data.
- Matter
- A smart home connectivity standard designed to let devices work across different ecosystems. It matters if you want a project to integrate more easily with platforms such as Apple Home, Google Home, or other Matter-compatible systems.
- QC3.0
- Quick Charge 3.0 is a USB charging standard that lets compatible chargers and devices negotiate higher charging voltages. For this product, it matters because it tells you what kind of input power source can be used for charging or powering the unit.
- USB-C
- A modern reversible USB connector used for power and data connections. On this product it matters because it can connect directly to a computer as well as to a microcontroller project.
