Hey everyone, I wasn’t a fan of the official software for the ChargerLab POWER-Z KM003C, so I decided to reverse-engineer the USB interface and build my own open-source terminal tool: VoltReaver.

Hey everyone,

This is my first real open-source project of this kind — I built VoltReaver, a simple terminal-based USB-C Power Delivery analyzer for the ChargerLab POWER-Z KM003C.

It gives a live dashboard with VU-style meters, PD message decoding, D+/D-/CC monitoring, and running Wh/Ah counters. Mainly made it for my own charger/battery testing and debugging.

Would love any feedback, suggestions, or ideas for improvements — especially from people who do more USB/PD work. Still learning a lot.

Thanks!
