EEVblog 1749 - Werewolf VFLEX USB-C Power Supply Adapters - Very Cool!

Why It Matters

VLEX simplifies power delivery for DIYers, repairers and product developers by turning any USB-C PD source into a configurable multi-voltage supply, reducing clutter and inventory of dedicated chargers and adapters. Its app-controlled, keyed connectors and safety features could accelerate adoption of USB-C PD as a universal power standard across consumer and professional use cases.

Summary

EEVblog reviews the Werewolf VLEX system, a modular USB-C Power Delivery (PD) adapter ecosystem that lets users program small adapters via a smartphone app to negotiate any PD-supported voltage (up to 48V) from a single USB-C power source. The kit includes programmable dongles, a variety of keyed output cables and tips (barrels, solderable wires, WGO connectors), magnetic USB-C accessories and a compact power brick and power bank that can be paired and managed in the app. The reviewer demonstrates precise voltage programming (including oddball voltages), safety fallback to 5V when a source cannot supply the requested voltage, and highlights thoughtful mechanical design and firmware-driven PD negotiation. He praises the system as an elegant, space-saving replacement for multiple wall-warts and bench supplies for powering diverse devices.
