This is the most complete review that i I have seen so far and I almost know all what this tester like I bought it and I'm using it. Nice. I did not get confused. I like that you use the word page instead of next display and it is very relatable. Nice! It's like I bought it already and I've been using for quite a while after I finished the whole video. Nice work! Great! You honestly want the viewers to understand and not get confused.

Cool! You're the most informative video so far. I bought a new 2023 Honda Ridgeline. The Android auto wouldn't work. I'm using the same USB cable from the Honda CRV. It worked fine right before I traded the car for the truck. What I noticed is that the USB data port charges the phone very slowly to no charge at all. The phone charges fine by using a USB adapter from the 12v socket. I was planning on ordering a USB port tester after watching some KZread videos. I found yours😊

Using the USB adapter to the 12v socket charges at normal around 10% per 15 minutes. Slow adapter.

The USB C coupler can be used with USB C chargers that have a fixed mounted cable. Such chargers have a cable with a USB C male plug to connect directly to a device. If you should connect such a charger to the USB tester then you need the USB C coupler to connect it to the "Type C input" on the USB tester. USB C is a nice invention. But it is a mess with all those USB C cables, chargers etc. that do not work as they should. So, I will probably order the USB tester. Nice video! 👍

Nice video, well informed. I am going to take a guess at the use for the C type adaptor you found no use for is to turn the type c input to female as most usb c leads are male both ends. So from a type c charger you can then have a usb c male/male lead plus adaptor to the tester usb c input. I would much rather have a type C or A flying lead across my workbench and have the mains charger firmly plugged into the wall socket than have a mains fly lead across my workbench, though in your case I understand why you had the lead there. Again well done on the video.

Great information. What if you USB C coupler is used to test the charging cable from PD (Power adaptor -> USB C cable -> Coupler -> Tester -> USB Cable -> Devices at the same time to max load it (power draw simultaneously) if you don't have devices that draw max power, like to test a 240W cable. Also, can you test cable for data transfer speed on this tester?

@YourMobileTech

5 ай бұрын

I am not quite understanding what you mean. If you PD>USB C>Coupler>Tester>USB cable>Devices, I don't see where the 2nd device is connected for simultaneous draw. As far as data transfer speed, the tester will not display an actual numerical value, but it will tell you which PD protocol it detects FC, SFC, etc.

Great Video. I have my tester but with no discharger (different company)🤔. I will start and check cables, but how without discharger how can I check power banks?

@YourMobileTech

I'm glad you liked the video and thank you for your comment. The purpose of the discharger is to provide a constant load on the power bank. You can use a phone, tablet, USB fan, light, etc. The only thing with that, is you may have to jot down how much power the power bank provided to each device and then sum the totals.

Something very unusual about the micro-USB 'adapter' - when it's plugged in, you can have power input on USB-C port and power output the USB-A port. Not at all obvious, right? AFAIK, none of the vendors mention that.

Hi Kay. I m a first time viewer of your channel. Thanks for the video. Although I’m an electrician, I’m not 100% familiar with usb protocols. Curious about one thing. In I think the second test you did, where you used the newer Apple 20 watt block and plugged in the load set at 3 amps. You mentioned that the reason the tester showed only 15watts as opposed to the 20 watt that the block is rated at, is that the load was “primitive” or something to that effect. I could be wrong but I was thinking that the reason would be that the tester is showing 15watts because that is indeed the wattage, and this would be because the load , with the setting at 3 amps, is designed to limit it at that, and since the applied voltage is 5volts, the wattage will be 15watts. Am I missing something? My apologies for the long comment.

@YourMobileTech

3 ай бұрын

Thank you for the comment regardless of how long it is. It's appreciated. The power adapter can provide 20 watts of charging, however the charger is limited in two ways. 1, the load discharge device does not have any fast charge protocols such as VOCC or PD installed on it, which, by today's standard, is primitive in design. 2, a USB A cable is limiting as well due to the amount of pins it has. USB A has one power and one ground pin, whereas USB C has four power and four ground pins which provide more amperage and thus more power. I hope this answers your question. If not, feel free to leave another comment.

Thanks for the video. Without connecting a load, can this tester poll a charger/powerbank to determine what charging protocols/voltages it is capable of outputting...? And secondly, can it poll a device and determine what input charging protocols/voltages it is capable of receiving?

@YourMobileTech

Ай бұрын

I do not believe you can poll a tester without a load. Reason being, the tester can identify most charging protocols but it is the device that "requests" the protocol. The best place to find the information you seek is to go to the manufacturer's website and look at the specs. I believe this is the case for both scenarios you mentioned.

Thanks for commenting. Samsung power adapter rated for 9V 1.67A utilize PD (Power Delivery) protocols like FC SFC VOOC, etc. The load tester that comes with the tester has no such protocols. You need to use any device that is capable of pulling 18W using PD protocols. Samsung, iphone, pixel, etc. I believe I demonstrated this in the video. I'll find the timestamp and reply with it.

Black screen, no turn on, etc. Thought it was bricked, gave it up for dead. Couple days later, playing around, I put the micro-USB adapter in the reader, and used USB-A input and USB-A output, and it came back to life! ?? Returned to original config, which was between 140W Apple MBP M1 Pro power supply (into USB-C IN), with USB-C OUT to the computer. Then that worked again, too. So far, no documented explanation.

@@0202fabrice Hi. Thanks for commenting. From what I understand, the input and output connections on the tester are unidirectional. That would explain why applying power to the output side may have caused the tester to glitch and malfunction. Placing the USB A input and output correctly seemingly reset the device. Which is good news because, otherwise, you were correct in assuming it might be bricked. Let me go grab the manual and see if we missed anything... ...Ok, so according to the instruction manual it states "You can use the input as the output and change the current direction, but the voltage and current would be wrong. (Only supports charging your device)" So you can charge your device bidirectional but the test readings will be inaccurate. After what you described to me, this should say, "Switching the direction of the current flow is not recommended." At least, that's what I think.

My device keeps restarting when I plug in a specific cable. What could be the potential issue?

One potential issue could be that the cable itself is damaged. Try the same cable with a different device, if possible, and see if the same thing happens. Or inversely, try a different cable and the same device. Keep me updated.

How do i test capacity of my phone battery? Do i discharge to 0 and then charge to 100 and read mAh? Do i have to multiply this to get my result?

@YourMobileTech

Hi. You cannot run power through your phone so you would need to charge to 100% then plug in the usb tester, and then place a load on the tester. Take note of the charging voltage. When the phone turns off, plug the tester into a power source and read mAh and multiply the mAh by the appropriate multiplier. As an option, you can set the multiplier in the settings and the tester will calculate it for you. Hope this answers your question.
