Review on Eversame Multimeter Chargers Capacity Banks Black by Kevin Webb

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Excellent USB meter for monitoring the performance of solar and conventional USB chargers

Nice USB monitor. I use it to monitor the charging power of my solar panel and regular plug-in USB chargers. There are some screens, but I've attached an annotated screen image that I find the most useful. On this screen you will get a charging performance dashboard with: - Input voltage. For USB it should be around 5 volts, plus or minus a few % - input current - the larger the number, the faster the charge. This number is device dependent. The charger attempts to negotiate the maximum speed that the device being charged can handle. This is typically between 0.8A (slow) and 2.4A (fast) - Total charge in mAh - the total amount of charge current that has elapsed since the reset (in mAh). For example, if you charge an 8000mAh power bank, this number increases to around 8000 (0-100%) - Cumulative charge time since reset - Also shows 3 other numbers that I don't find that useful: Total charge in W, Wh and charging temperature. One thing I would like is a pigtail on the plug end to plug into a USB port for charging. This is not the case, so I purchased a separate short USB extension cable for this purpose (6" USB 2.0 A to A to M/F Extension Cable). From my testing, this does not affect charging performance. Attached is a annotated image of the dashboard screen that I find the most useful along with the instructions that go with it.The guide is a bit hard to understand due to translation.
