Dave🌱<p>I got a little USB volt/amp/power meter thingamajig to help with out with the occasional USB power related shenanigans. It seems to work quite well and update fast, too.<br>This photo was taken while I was charging my smartphone, just as an example. I already used it to verify a certain cable I got was actually a feasible power supply replacement for a floppy disk drive. It's really quite handy to have this on hand for such occasions.<br><a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/USB" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>USB</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Electronic" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Electronic</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Electronics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Electronics</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Hardware" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Hardware</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Pluggable" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Pluggable</span></a></p>
