🔋 Charge Ahead: Power Up Your Devices with Style!
The 5PCS USB-C PD Trigger Board Module is a versatile and compact solution for fast charging, supporting multiple protocols including PD3.0 and QC4+. With its small size, it allows for easy integration into various devices, transforming them into USB-C power supplies.

Decent USB-C PD Board for Hobby
Low power noise and very easy to use. Do note that there's a tiny shunt on one of the pads you will have to desolder to change the voltage that is a miniature black square and blends in with the PCB.The voltage can easily be set by soldering the pads between the resistor of the voltage you want to the pad next to it, so it's very intuitive. It works well, despite mediocre build quality, and is small enough to fit in many projects!

Better than just PD, support for QC gives more versatility
It does the job.The voltage can be set by soldering a bridge between the resistor of the corresponding voltage to the pad next to it - which is easier said than done if you don't have a steady hand or a precise tip on your soldering iron. Removing all bridges causes the decoy to resort to 5V, which is great if you're wanting to convert a 5V device to USB-C.Simply put, these do exactly as advertised and its support for QC means you can recycle/reuse older QC USB chargers that can do 9v and 12v.

Garbage.
Should be zero. Came jumpered for 12 volts. Put 13.8 into it. 13.8 come out. Tried all jumper settings. No instructions. I assumed no jumpers is 5 volts as there is no 5v jumper setting. Essentially this board does nothing but light a blue LED. So be careful what you plug into this. My guess is this is leftover failed items the Chinese sent to us to buy.

Work great, couple quirks.
Work great and easy to use. Notes for others, it won't limit current at all, so your project needs current limiting so it doesn't trip protection on the charger you use. They also will not negotiate a voltage if there's power on the output pins from a battery or something so you'll need a diode if you have a battery or other power in parrallel.Very happy with them.

Power supply must support voltage
A very import but non-obvious point about these boards is that the power supply you use must support the given voltage. This is mentioned in the description but it wasn't clear to me until re-reading after trying to get a board to output 12v.I tried 3 different cables (all attached to different power supplies) and only one of them output 12v with the 12v resistor soldered. Make sure that your given power supply supports the voltage you are looking for or use a buck converter or other circuitry to ensure the correct voltage.Hope this helps someone!

Very handy to have around.
Very handy if you have any projects that you want to power with a USB-C PD setup. These come pre set for 12V, but if you are able to solder to the board you can change them to other voltages. I kept mine at 12V but soldered them to a barrel jack to power an astrophotography camera and it works great. The female USB-C port on the board seems well made and has a small blue status led next to it, which is nice to have. The small black shied slides completely over the chip, so it can be installed even after you have attached the wires to your project. It does need to be secured with glue, make sure to use a glue compatible with Pcb's.

Always on!
Edit: Failed after a week, jumping the 9V back up to 12V and nearly frying my projectThe blue “charging” LED is always on, regardless if current is flowing, so it either slowly drains your batteries or you have to turn on the device before charging.Basically, unless you remove the LED, it’s only good for devices without batteries - something that’s always plugged in.

Great little usb c pd board
These are great little usb pd boards if you want to add some usb c pd features to your project for cheap without much complication!
