The U96 USB Tester/Meter was a request for a birthday gift. Recipient was very pleased to receive as gift and will be very useful for electronic design projects.

Great meter. The only downside is that it doesn't measure low current consumption... (tested with an Adafruit Circuit Playground and the current draw remains at 0, yet, it works when measuring a phone charging)

Really just jumped on this because it was on sale, but also because I wanted to check my power saving code on some MCUs. Wasn't hoping for much, but I was hoping to see something repeatable between full power ~50 mA and low power in the µA range which I assumed would just show up as 0.000 or whatever. Sadly it doesn't do the job, seems to require at least something in the 100 mA+ range to start registering at all, and is pretty insensitive to small current changes. So probably fine for things like powerbanks, larger SBCs and so on, no good for MCU usage really.

Just the job. I can now measure how much power a devive is using when left plugged in.
