| Nov 4, 2017 at 23:24 | comment | added | George Pearce | Hi both - I misspoke in my original message, and meant a USB C pass-through meter. In connecting it to my Macbook, I can see the voltage and amperage running through the meter into the computer. The reason for my looking is because a charger providing less than ideal input will do long term damage to the battery (AFAIK) and it seems no PD charger I buy can provide as much power as the Apple plug can. This leads to the question - what is 'normal' for USB PD running into a laptop? | |

Measuring voltage into zero load will tell you nothing, you need to measure parallel to the loaded circuit, which would require access to the internals, or a spliced cable. Sticking your meter into the end of an unloaded socket doesn't do what you think it will do. | |
