Is it possible to check the TBW on a USB flash drive?

If I'm understanding correctly, flash drives have the same type of storage as SSDs - and therefore have some sort of a write limit.

 

I use a pair of 128GB SanDisk Ultra Fit flash drives very heavily and I was wondering if there's a way to check how much has been written to them.

Not that I'm aware of.  You can't even check those statistics on SSDs if they are connected over USB, at least not with any adapters I have tried.

Router:  Intel N100 (pfSense) WiFi6: Zyxel NWA210AX (1.7Gbit peak at 160Mhz)
WiFi5: Ubiquiti NanoHD OpenWRT (~500Mbit at 80Mhz) Switches: Netgear MS510TXUP, MS510TXPP, GS110EMX
ISPs: Zen Full Fibre 900 (~930Mbit down, 115Mbit up) + Three 5G (~800Mbit down, 115Mbit up)
