A powerful combination of most of the current usb meters/triggers
5 out of 5 stars
A powerful combination of most of the current usb meters/triggers
This USB meter is very powerful. Build quality looks good. The large TFT screen helps to read easily. It has some common features like monitoring voltage, current, energy, power, capacity, and time with high accuracy. It also has wide operating range of 3.7-25V, 0-5A but a low quiescent current of 1mA@5V. Moreover, it has built-in clock and temperature sensor while most of the other usb meters don’t. Like some other usb meters, it supports dual-way detection thus don’t have to plug the input cable into the IN port, but the OUT port works as well. Furthermore, it has 5 different views of the home screen including everything on one page, D+ D- voltages & current direction & possible + current charging protocols, time and energy consumption, simple look with large fonts, and black screen. And It will automatically enter power saving screen when idle.The electronic load is fairly easy to use. Turn the knob clockwise/counterclockwise to increase/decrease the current. The fan will automatically turn on when the temperature is higher than 40℃ to keep it cool. Good for performing stress test on a power adapter or measuring the capacity of a power bank.Next is the advanced part I’d like to comment in detail.[Operations]All operations are carried out with the scroller.>Short press - switches/enters/confirms>Long press - enters the main menu>Double press - enters the charting mode/exits to the home screen>Short turn forward/backward - enters a mode/scrolls through menu options/triggers an action/increases or decreases a value>Long turn (turn and hold) forward/backward - enters a mode/scrolls through menu options/triggers an action/increases or decreases a value[Groups]Short turn forward to clean the current group.Can switch between 5 groups for different tests.[Charting]Double press to enter, short press to switch between V-A and Vd+/Vd-.Draws a V-A or Vd+/Vd- chart with real-time data at a selected sample rate[FastCharge Trigger]UNPLUG any device before doing this as it may DAMAGE your device!Short turn backward to enter.

>Apple MFI Test - checks if a lightning cable is MFi certified. Helps to pick a good lightning cable. (Needs a QC3.0 charger)
>Power Delivery - checks the PDOs the PD charger offered and triggers the voltages (Needs to turn on the PD trigger switch first)
>HUAWEI FCP - triggers HUAWEI FCP voltages 5/9V.
>Samsung AFC - triggers Samsung AFC voltages 5/9V.

[Cable Resistance Test]
Long turn backward to enter. Needs to use with the electronic load together to adjust the output current to 500mA or greater.
Tests the ESR of a usb cable. Usually a better cable has a lower ESR.

In addition, a lot of settings can be found in the main menu. It’s awesome that a firmware update will bring more new features. It’s really a combination of all my current usb meters/triggers with even more features. Powerful and useful. I wish bluetooth connection and PC/Smartphone apps would be found in a later version of this product.
(I did everything pretty quick in the video to save your time.)

------------- UPDATE 12/27/2017 -------------
CT-2 Part
[Independently/Externally Powered]
Powered via the Micro USB port. Can measure DC 0.1-26V with this. Useful to check Ni-MH rechargeable batteries.

[Offline Curve Recording]
Short turn forward to enter.
Records the voltage and current points. Will generate a curve diagram when finished recording. A charge curve helps determine if a charger is good. Also, the curve records can be accessed in the PC app.

[PC App]
Shows the curve diagram directly. Can save/export the curve diagram to a file and open the diagram recorded on the meter or computer.
Tracks the communication between a charger (source) and a device (sink) with PD Listen. Will let you know how a PD charger charges a device. Needs the PD Tester switch to be turned on.
Boot logo and theme can be easily customized here.
Can perform firmware update here as well.

I also updated the video.
I am looking forward to the next version!

The AVHzY is a smart and useful USB meter. It is the very versatile and has the most features of all the meters I own. Supports USB C, USB A, and a Micro USB port for only connecting to the PC or providing power. One of the few testers that can read the e-maker chip of USB-C cables.

I find this meter the easiest to use use of all my USB meters. It has a multi button that lets you press and rotate left/right, you'll still need to read the manual as this one button controls everything. Screen is nice and clear. It even came with a free tempered glass screen protector. The fit and finish is good but the stainless steel is edge can be a bit sharp.

I only have two things I wish this meter did better: 1) wish it had bluetooth so I could monitor things via a smartphone app or wirelessly. 2) The female USB port is "upside down" (i.e. opposite orientation) of the male USB plug, which is strange to me. Make it so my USB load has to be put upside down when I connect it to the meter.

Of my 4 meters, the generic UP-LCDV03, RD UM25C, RD TC66C, and AVHzY CT-3. The AVHzYCT-3 is my fav because it has the most features followed by the very compact RD TC66C because it is pure USB C.

This is really cool. It can show all the data with the downloadable software. It can also run scripts. Just be careful about the scripts that you run. I fried some tech that was plugged in when I ran a script.

Style: CT3+SM-LD-00Verified Purchase
Not so much a learning curve but more so figuring out menus.
Works as advertised with the latest HW & SW firmware loaded prior to shipping to me (I checked as seller continues to update where possible).
Was going to return because the model has built in load testing (fan with heatsink mounted with a ribbon cable, then with screws to the actual tester. When attempting to run any load test it just would not work. With further investigating on multiple web sites & videos the ""micro USB"" port is for updating firmware and loading ""modules"". Well; when using the tester and going into the load testing menu there are NO modules (for load testing installed......)
Gotta return it..... NOPE !!
Hook up a dedicated USB to micro cable: USB 5 v power to "feed" the micro usb port on the tester. Once the tester senses power to that port.... it now allows the module to be displayed & selected.
Very, very nice as you can control ramp up power, constant power, vary the voltage or watts to your needs !!
I still use a universal USB-A (with adapters) load tester because it allows more control of testing and MONITORING power supplies output and still use triggering (PD & QC steps) with the main CT3 usb tester.

I needed this device as a diagnostic tool for a project I was building. It exceeded all of my expectations. In my case I was diagnosing some hardware, and to do so required an Ammeter. This worked excellently for that purpose, expecially since I did not have to jump back and forth between Volts and Amps, it was all on the same meter.
Long story short: This ammeter helped me verify that some of my computer hardware was operating properly. I highly recommend!!

As mentioned max measurable voltage / current 26V - 6.0A in specs, but measuring max. 20V - 3.1A = 63W (PD3.0 PPS) while charger can supply 20V - 5A = 100W.
