update:8/9/2026
I had a request to add screw holes as an option for assembly so I decided to get that done now. I used M2.5x8 screws that I had laying around in my box'o'junk so that is what will work best for assembly. Hole is 2.25mm so that allows for 0.25mm thread bite into the plastic. The heads of the screws/bolts will stick up as I didn't want to make 5 variations of insets depending on the type of bolt/screw used, so if you want to add an inset, you can do that in slicer with a simple cylinder shape for your type of M2.5 head and have that as a negative to remove it and allow heads to sit flush (could also make it deeper on the top recess so that shorter bolts/screws fit too).
I also did a slight modification to the stand as I replaced my mini-b cable and found it did not plug in as secure as I wanted, so I just removed a bit of the edge guard on both sides near the ports to allow more access. This should make it easier for more cable brands to fit while in the stand.
_________________________
This is a meter I made off of (and to hold) the Paul Daniels USB-C current/volt meter.
It includes a stand that angles the meter to 45 degrees.
It's a tight fit into the stand (which I prefer) but if people ask for it, I can increase the offset or you can just increase the scale.
To fit it into the stand as it is, I suggest placing the bottom in first then apply pressure to the top of the case with your palm and it will snap in… update.. I updated/changed the stand to have a -0.4mm offset which still keeps it a tight fit but is much more user friendly.
This is (in my opinion) one of the best current/voltage meters so I wanted a case for everyone to be able to print.
I printed everything in PLA with a 0.4mm nozzle, 0.2mm layer height. I recommend printing in the orientation provided. No supports needed
edit: While I made this case based off of the usb current/volt meter itself, I do recognize that it similar to one that is previously designed (that I visually inspected for reference) but had no available files for printing (or editing). I did not know who the designer was until they contacted me about it. So I would like to attribute @optoio for their original design.
