Thank you for making this video, I found your video in one of the Facebook groups and you answered some of the questions that I had, I wanna buy an Escope with 8 channels... your video helped me figure out the different between the other scopes, By the way your video wasn’t boring at all, it’s very informational, keep them coming!!!! I just subscribed, cheers 🥂

Thanks for sharing your knowledge. Im trying to decide what scope to get, and i fell upon your clip. I was leaning towards the ats. Looking forward to more.

Not boring great stuff thanks for sharing your knowledge and skills I enjoy your videos I’m trying to soak up as much as I can keep them coming

Really enjoyed the video. Thanks for the info. Look forward to the follow ups

I am barely getting into in-depth diagnostics, I went with the vantage because of the guided component testing, not only does it tell you were to plug in it also has a known good waveform on there. To me that was a big plus being in a dealership were no one else uses scopes. Also the fact that there was financing so that made it a no brainer. Thanks for the great video!

I have both the new Pico and the Escope elite 4 channel. I use the escope all the time & i love it..I've don'e some diagnostics with Pico scope but then i always go with the Escope coz it's easier & i have all the accessories like In cylinder pressure transducer, intake transducer & exhaust pulse transducer. Plus it has misfire algorithm which is awesome and the ttl which u can send 5 volts pulses to find shorts or pulse igniters or other components.. Its great scope & i enjoy it every day.

Very informative video on different scopes

For what it's worth, I don't find it dry at all man. I've had an EScope Limited for years and I love it. Hoping to upgrade to one of Elites within the next year or less. Eventually I'll pick up a Pico and an Autel too because much like yourself, I'm a tool nerd.

thank you for the very informative video ,well done

Awesome video thank you very much!

Great share thanks, a professional perspective will never lead you wrong.

A scope is an essential tool for vehicles these days if you want to call yourself a diagnostician. I have the Verus Edge and I like it for what it is. I feel she is lacking a little for the price. Next on the list is the Elite 8 kit from ATS with 5 gas and Escan. Those guys at ATS are doing some awesome stuff for the industry as far as hardcore diagnostics go. Can't wait to get it. Probably sometime next year.

I bought a used PICO 4423 from AES wave. Pretty much seems to do the same as the newer picos except the max input voltage is 100V, so an attenuator is needed for primary ignition. I used velcro to attach it to my laptop with a 1' long lead. I also got the older uscope which was great to learn with.

for me this video was not boring at all i have snap on VERSE 4 CHANNEL and love to buy the Pico 4 channel when time come please more videos enjoyable to watch and appreciate ur time brother cheeeeeeers from Canada.

Excellent video. Great info!!!

thanks so much, for the new users like me this is wonderful information. i have the snap on vantage legend. and also the uscope. have the snap on dvom guess i need to start using the vantage as a meter as well that way i will have it out and make easier to use and learn. i am leaning toward the e-scan and e-scope combo kit with tablet just having to save up more funds

Great video thanks Brandon!

Cant wait for the how to use my scope videos. I have the autel scope and a snap on scope and I just got the aes wave u scope.

How about Hantek scope? Aún thoughts? Great video!!

Nice video, keep it up -in a year you'll have 10X the views.

Great video, I only mis the best automotive scope in the world, the GMTO scope with the software ATIS. With loads of known goods in it! Especially voor European cars!

Thanks for the awesome video! I'm leaning towards a pico but I'm still considering the Autel Ultra as i do not have a bidirectional scantool. wonder what your thoughts are on that? thanks again! cheers!

Thanks for the reviews will be waiting for the snap on video with different testing.like you said its hard to see in depth videos of set up with the scope you have.alot videos out the but none showing how to set up and what to look for. Step by step.

Wow nice video I have both, pico and snap on Zeus but some times I feel like I need more trining like what to look for on a pattern, and my main question right now is how to do a battery test on a diesel with a pico

Great video

awesome video, ATS 8 ch for me

Great video thanks

No way Jose, You did a great job.👍

That was a great video, I was wondering why we don't see more videos from you there great. I personally can't wait to see your series of scope videos and with all the outstanding tools you make please keep them coming thanks.

Awesome video. I started out with a uscope from aeswave then went Autel, and a snap on. I’m a dealer tech, we use pico. I currently use the shops pico for any warranty tickets, simply because emailing files is easier. I would like to get an ats 8 channel. But the new pico is pretty slick with the bnc plus.

What i feel is most important is that the pico and ats have independent grounds so essentially 4 scopes in one package synced to the software.

good information!!

Thanks for the video. Quick question. I am getting started with a Pico scope. I am going to buy a laptop. Would you recommend a touch screen? Is it going to be easier than a regular screen? Thanks for your time.

Thanks for the nice and detailed video. My 4425A is on it's way, and I am looking forward to put it on use. I have also been looking at your website and maybe there are something on there that I might need in the near future. Cheers and thank you.

Very informative run down. The only thing I hate about all these automotive scopes is the price and how low-end of a scope they sell you for the price. The pico 4425 is a 20 Mhz scope, the EScope doesn't even list their bandwidth in the specs but would be a 500 Khz scope with a low resolution of two samples per cycle, 100 Khz is the more appropriate bandwidth if you want good resolution (they list a sample rate of 1 Mega samples/sec). Meanwhile, the "real" oscilloscope companies have had 100 Mhz scopes for decades now and one can get a new one for WAY cheaper than these "automotive" specific scopes.

One reason to get the ATS is you got Mr Bernie Thompson putting out those case studies on KZfaq

About the only one I can afford is the Autel scope. I work out of my shop at my home so I don’t see a lot of problems requiring a scope but one could come handy once in a while. Where would you get the better leads for the Autel at?

Thanks

Great information Iam in the market

Is it worth getting a scope with only 2 channels, or is it better to get one with 4+? Can you do the same tests with a 2 channel and overlay your results? BTW that surface pro mount for the pico is genius.

Brilliant video thank u 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

Great video, you mentioned that the leads that come with autel scope are not that good...what would you suggest as the best alternative out there? thanks

drj Westfield Wisconsin what scop can do key change to add or disable or if you lost your keys. Also bidirectional controls

Great video, I want to start using a scope. I'm a diy mechanic.

PICO and ATS are the only scopes worth considering for automotive use. Maybe the new Autel VCMI that goes with the Ultra tablet as the economical add-on, but the jury is still out on that, and personally I'd rather have my scope as a separate tool so if it goes down I don't lose both my scanner and my scope. Please don't waste your money on anything else. AUTEL has been adopted by more OEMs than any other scope on the market (Mercedes, GM, Chrysler, Kia and so on have all adopted PICO!). That speaks volumes about the quality of a PICO because as you know, OEMs can build their own scope (like Ford did), so for them to adopt someone else's scope means a lot. Bernie Thompson, the Wizard behind ATS has built some of the best automotive diagnostic equipment on the planet, and he has patented it, so no one else has it. The difference between PICO and ATS is like the Ford VS Chevy debate: Each has their advantages and disadvantages, and it boils down to personal preference. Ask: Who provides the best support? PICO and ATS are both awesome! Who has a signature waveform library so you can look up known good patterns? PICO wins that one. PICO's newest scopes now eliminate the need for probe batteries and scale setup. ATS has software written for specific testing that the others don't have. So again, between PICO and ATS it's a matter of personal preference. Whatever you do, DON'T waste your money on a red brick!

Thanks for the reply I was wondering is there a way to mount the escope on the back of a tablet like the one you came up with for the Pico that was genius I have my own lab top and would like the convenience of having it mounted on the back

Whats brand leads would you recommend with a autel maxiscope?

who makes the black tactical bag for your scope accessories?

If the snap on is out of date do you lose the guided component test?

Got a fortune in oscilloscopes. Them snap on tools are expensive. I’m wanting to use the autel scope with my ibm laptop

I have a question, does the escope do what pico does like getting a known good waveform from their library? It’s a neat feature for pico to have those known good waveforms such as cam crank and in cylinder pressure. Thank tou

I'm a little late finding this, Thanks for the video. I just wanna note, with proper set up the "pico gap" between buffers can be eliminated. It involves using streaming mode and strategic placement of a trigger.

4823 Pico scope, aeswave sells it, it is a 8channel automotive scope. There is a video there so you can see it in action

Thanks for the video. I am just learning about scopes. Will you please explain the purpose of channels and why a person would need 8 instead of 2?

What scope would I need to just verify my work?

Hi, I just got a scope couple of days ago. I tried to use it then download software in my laptop and plugged in MP 408. When i select Auto setup my laptop show Maxiscope and press ok.it’s come up like this “The current software version doesn’t match with the hardware version.please go to Help ->Check for updates to update the hardware version”. But no update available. I tried to contact Autel but no answer yet. Do you have any ideas?

So I I'm kinda new but not totally to using scopes. I have a snap-on 2 channel. I got a 2 channel fluke 98 for the relative compression test that displays it in a bar graph and the first scope that I got was a micsig 2 channel. But as time goes on and I get better with it I find myself wanting a 4 channel. But don't want to spend a crap ton of money. So I seam to be interested in the new micsig 4 channel. That is apx 650$. Or the aultel and I also have a aultel scanner. That I can get for about 425$. Do you have a recommendation are you familiar with the micsig?

Snap On Vantage Ultra EETM309 how much it coast too update it ? thanks

I have the Autel scope, but haven't used it much yet. Can the Autel software put in the 720° and put in the dividers to see each cylinder TDC?

Have you had a chance to play with the new maxsys Ultra from Autel yet I would like you're opinion on how you think it's works and comparison to some of the others units. I know that it might not be as good as a pico.

Man I it’s been a minute since I’ve seen a old school KZfaq into with dubstep

Do you know if the Maximus ultra’s scope is compatible with your vdd parasitic draw tester

I have an old OTC SOLARITY scope. It came with great leads but they use a separate ground cable. Can these cables be adapted for Pico use? Oh I retired 13 years ago.

You like keeping your money local...? What camera and phone are you using?

what kind leads you recomed me buy for vatege 2 channel cause there kits but all come for 4 channel leads Thanks

7:50 where does one find a set of those leads?

Great to know What would you recommend for a laptop to use for the ats or pico? Thanks

Where can I find one of those bags you showed in your video

What leads are you recommending what brand where to buy??

It a battle between escope and picoscope , still can't decide which one to buy

On the ATS can I use any pressure transducer and convert it to a pressure measurement easily? Or can I only do that with their transducers?

You selling that 3d printed enclosure

I’ll buy one of the snap on ones from you when you need more room lol

As a diy myself what do you think the best scope for me. Thanks for you honest answer.

Hmm. Maybe the Snap on with built in wiring info is OK. By the time you subscribe to an Alldata or something plus the fact you gotta swap out and troll through to find what you want then go back and continue what you were doing? Gotta save you hours a month surely?

What would you need 8 channels for ?

I like your channel

One tool is missing from your collection , the itester carscope 🤓

So Escope or Picoscope? If you had to choose one for the rest of your career which one would you choose

I have the autel scope. I haven’t been able to use it for a relative compression test without a current amp clamp. When I try this test I get so much noise on my graph. Any known reason for this. N.b- I never used the current amp clamp for the test

Can you please enable subtitles please? Thanks

do you make your own leads or buy them from AES wave

Million like

One day I’ll have a n ATS 8 channel

Modis still making me money.

I have the Zeus I think for the price it should do more

Bro you're missing MT PRO 4.1

Pico has a 8 scope

Who needs a scope? I use my stethoscopes to hear what is wrong with the car

Snap On Vantage Ultra EETM309 how much it coast too update it ? thanks
