StarTech.com USB 2.0, Male USB A to Female Micro USB B, 480Mbps, 0.2m

This excellent tester kit from StarTech.com is perfect for diagnosing issues with chargers, cables, and batteries. It’s great for discovering optimal charging combinations as the device displays voltage and current whether you’re using iPhone or Android.

What’s great about this affordable product is users can self-diagnose issues with charging at a lesser expense than replacing various accessories, especially if users aren’t 100% sure the replacement will solve the problem.

The USB charger tester displays the voltage and current that’s being delivered to your USB devices, allowing users to test different sources, such as wall and car chargers, power banks, computer USB ports and other charging stations. The USB meter enables users to find an optimum charging combination for different environments, whether you’re on the go, at the office, or at home.

If users run a test lab or repair facility, this diagnostic tool is perfect for determining where the issue is coming from specifically, be it the charger, cable, or battery.

Using StarTech.com’s device is easy, true plug and play. The display shows either current or voltage, or a cleverly designed setting alternates the two display options. This is great if you’re wanting to keep an eye on the measurements without having to repeatedly switch the display manually.

The accessory is able to charge and sync at the same time. However, this USB adapter features a fast-charge mode, which works by disabling the sync mode and making the computer port a charge only port. This mimics the same charging capabilities as an AC wall charger.

For secure charging, users can disable syncing if charging devices at public charging station. This reduces the risk of data being stolen and downloading malware or viruses without realising over a USB connection.
