The video opens with Linus teasing a roundup of affordable tech under $100, promising a mix of practical gadgets and curious novelty items. He introduces the AVHzY CT-3 USB power meter as the first featured device, describing its ability to monitor voltage, current, and power for connected gear, while also logging data over time. The host demonstrates the multiple views and capabilities, including testing USB-C cables for E-Mark chips and identifying charging protocols such as USB Power Delivery and Quick Charge. He cautions users about potential risks of incorrect settings that could affect battery life, and notes the device is scriptable with Lua for custom charging routines, adding that it can interface with PC software for deeper control. The segment emphasizes the CT-3 as a surprisingly capable tool for about $70, framing it as a valuable addition for anyone who manages multiple devices or wants to optimize charging behavior.
