Legion Meter is a USB multimeter with integrated OLED display designed to accelerate your smartphone or tablet’s charge speed up to 92% faster. A multimeter is an electronic measuring instrument that combines several measurement functions in one unit. A typical multimeter would include basic features such as the ability to measure voltage, current, and resistance (source: [Wikipedia](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multimeter)).

I backed [Legion Meter](http://www.plxdevices.com/product_info.php?id=MOBLLEGIONMETER) on [Kickstarter](https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/plxdevices/legion-meter-charge-your-smartphone-92-faster) on the 29th May 2014 and it was funded successfully on 19th June 2014 after raising US$416,268 out of their initial goal of just US$10,000.

The estimated delivery date is in October 2014 and it was delayed for about two months which is still acceptable for Kickstarter projects. It was shipped to me on 5th December 2014 and I received it on 19th December 2014.

My pledge was US$59 (S$78), US$49 (S$65) for Legion Meter and US$10 (S$13) for worldwide shipping.
