Amazon Prime SUPER DEALS Jul 16-17: (Scanners...Cameras...Jump Starter TORTURE TEST!)

[@StevenDaugherty-uo5cs]

Nice run through on those tools. I had a small home machine shop and motorcycle shop and lost absolutely everything when a fire started by the utility company burned our entire town. Five years later and I'm still slowly trying to replace things. Needless to say a quality tool at a reasonable price is very important to me. Thanks for the great information. Love your channel and all the great videos, i appreciate the time you spend making them for us.

[@fredautos]

Sorry for the bizarre!

[@HayesTech]

I'm right here in Central Pa. too. I couldn't believe what went down here, in our state. It's a shame that there is that much hate in the world. You talk with people you disagree with and meet in the middle. Nuff said... As for the equipment you showed in this video, awesome stuff. I've got a battery jump pack, like those TopDon, and I absolutely love it. It saved my butt more than once and the charge lasts for a long time. Great video Ivan.

[@ddrowdy2]

I have a 2014 Duramax, the Top don top scan runs most if not all the same tests as the dealer scanners. I had "def quality" problems caused by a low performing injection pump and this tool helped find the problem and then clear the codes and mph restrictions after repairs. The only complaint would be that you have to use your phone and monitoring multiple systems means constantly scrolling the screen. It would be better if you could connect thru a laptop with a bigger screen where you can see more data at the same time. Maybe even be able to select the data you want to monitor.

Ivan, I bought that Topdon VCI dongle. It actually went cheaper after prime day. It was so worth it. Not only did I get a clean bill of health, minus the gateway being upset about the aftermarket radio. This thing tells you everything a $119 Firestone diagnostic scan could for less than half the price. Great choice showcasing it.

[@dogdooley4495]

Thanks to your channel, I have the Thinktool PROS. I can deal with all the annoying tabs for cars since I use it at home for personal use only.

[@mastahc411]

For the topdon topscan. If you don't want/need to pay for the software updates after the 1st year does it still work with the software it comes with? Or do you have to pay after the first year just to use it?

[@Gaborkik]

According to my research you will not be able to use it if you don't pay.

[@mikegalgano4567]

Would live to see you do a full diag with the topdon dongle and your phone.

[@bombardier3qtrlbpsi]

Question.... In your opinion which scanner would be good for older vehicles. Ford truck mid 90's

[@windward2818]

The best scan tool for the truck is a Ford Rotunda New Generation Star Tester with the program card for your year vehicle. Unfortunately these testers are not made anymore and before 1996 are pre-OBD II vehicles which need custom Ford bus interface connectors. Many new tool vendors have adaptors for the older pre-OBD II vehicles but I can't get them to work (Autel). But, maybe a Ford VCM 3 with the correct adaptors might work, but you would have to get an apps engineer on the phone to confirm and then best to have a money back guarantee. The truck is going on 30 years old.

[@johnt.848]

The TopScan seems the best value for people with an iPad already

[@hudsonm748]

If anyone is looking for a cheap bidirectional, topology & the whole kit & caboodle scan tool then the kingbolen K10 is a great bang for your buck. Been using it for a few months now, I have zero complaints except that you can’t take snapshots, only recordings… Excited to get the 4 channel Oscilloscope attachment as the functions of it aren’t as advanced as the pico scope but very user friendly. This is just my opinion of course

[@chrishill1219]

Hi, Thanks for the reviews. I'm having issues finding a scanner that will give me misfire data for a Dodge (Journey 2013). Is it common for scanners, not to have misfire data for certain company's? I currently own an older Autel DS808 which doesn't have the data PID. I also tried to buy the Xtool A30D and that also doesn't have it. Do your scanners show misfire data for Dodge's?

[@1MiketheMechanic]

I use the Topdon Phoenix Plus and Otofix D1 Pro. Very good bang for the buck.

[@ashleyweston5420]

The jump starters are very impressive but I do have to wonder would they perform as well actually connected to a discharged battery? Would the discharged battery drag them down?

[@shenanigans8apeach]

A little more details on the scanners would be nice like are they capable of fuel leak down tests or can any of them be hooked up to an oscilloscope.

My experince with the lithium jump starters is horrible, Ive had atleast 6 different brands and not one made it more than a year, two swelled up, and mfg said that they couldnt be left in a "hot car" then what good are they?? 🤯 My 15 year old Jump n carry 660 still works like a champ one ive only had to replace the battery once

[@joenmass]

Thank you so much for the this video on the various scanners. I ended up purchasing on Amazon today the XTOOL D7S OBD2 Scanner: Bidirectional Scan Tool with 3-Year updates for only $367. I was hoping you would have added this scanner as it has been having rave reviews. I’m just a DIY’er and watch your videos all the time.

Hey Ivan , I'm interested to know with the think tool complaint you have about the vehicle softwares not being able to be hidden , I use a think tool master 2 all day every day and I use the intelligent diagnose function it will read the vin and automatically enter the correct vehicle software without extra selection . It also now give options to use different software versions eg v23.4 or v23.8 incase something changed that you don't like

His platform his views. Thats all i will say to the comment section on the intro he gave. I have always liked the Launch line up as far as scan tools go, but i like my xtool alot. Only problem is no auto auth. Will definitely check them out. As far as jump packs go i have a 2000 and a 3000 from avapow and really like them as well, but i like the idea of having one that does starting and charging test as well. I mean if you are using a jump pack then usually the next mive is to start doing testing on thise systems anyways so why not have one with all of that built in and be able to save the report for the customer. Great idea.

They have All-Data DIY, but you have to pay for each car independently, instead of paying for a membership and getting access to multiple cars.

[@garybaughman7099]

Great video Ivan. Do the jump starters last or hold a charge when they are left inside the vehicle and it gets extremely hot?

[@edgarcornette6387]

i would bet there is a config file which will let you change the hide options. most of those units use the same backend and then its configured on the front end with there company name , colors , logo etc. All the ones I have looked at are setup that way. For some of my clients I have removed the security and rooted them and placed all there loved apps on one device quick and simple. anyway love your channel. take care.

[@kevin9c1]

Remember that the battery would be connected and a dead battery MAY draw a ton of current (especially at 16V) which would impact the capacity of the jump pack.

[@KStewart-th4sk]

A dead or defective battery may not allow a boost to work at all. It has happened to me twice not on my own vehicles, one was a machine at work, another in a parking lot helping a young lady. Tried to boost NOTHING, disconnected the battery to take it out of the system, then boosted directly to the cables, started both times. Something everyone should be made aware.

[@kyferez1]

Does the Launch and/or Autel work with 99-04 Grand Cherokee PCI Bus? Does it work on the WJ to program keys, fobs, and read ABS and transmission codes? I need one badly that will work for these things but am just a DIYer and want it to be a good unit that will last me! None of their websites list the WJ :(

[@ppeterson9359]

Question on the Autel scanners. I assume the scanner will still function after the subscription expires, you just won’t receive any more updates. Is that correct?

[@Averna222]

Correct. My previous shop had one that they stopped buying updates for and it was still operational.

Nice work Ivan. Unfortunately that TC001 thermal camera is over $300 in Cold Canada. Lithium battery packs WILL lose power, or not be able to turn on in cold weather. Keep those indoors or warm when not needed in vehicle. Use a thermal insulated food bag when taking them in car, try put them near a heater vent, keep it in a small backpack and take it indoors with you when at work etc. Yes, thats a pain in the tuckus, but its better than a dead battery at minus 50 Celsius when it gets dark at 4pm and the wait for a tow or boost is 3-10 days. Stay gold.
