Correction: we are told the scope is supported by MicSig - great scopes!

Thanks for the time you put into this review! You are a good teacher.

Thanks Craig!

Thanks from New Jersey. I am a member of your course scope training. Thank you very much for this scope review. I bought it during summer but havent seen too many videos on it. I love your videos.

@MechanicMindset Год назад

Hey Mark! That’s great to hear, how do you get on using the ThinkTool scope box? Hope you’re enjoying the lessons in MechanicMindset.com thanks!

@DJ-tn7vj Год назад

Yo D. Excellent video. I have this scope for over a year and still haven't master it. Its so easy to grab the big boys tools which you can zoom in and diagnose. Basically this is really a cool tool if you are now starting to scope and don't want to invest heavily into a scope.

@MechanicMindset Год назад

For sure, this will do the job for most things and if you have the ThinkTool scanner, nice and convenient 👍

@DJ-tn7vj Год назад

@@MechanicMindset thanks again D. As always on top of your game. Keep pushing

It's crazy that even the cheap picoscopes like the 2204a and 2205a still put this $600 oscilloscope to sleep. I get way better results out of my 2205a. I know it's not 4 channels and needs an attenuator sometimes, but I rarely need 4 channels anyway. Not to mention, you can't even do a split screen with this oscilloscope either. This thing should be at least half the price they are currently charging for it. I feel like even the autel oscilloscope is better than this oscilloscope. It's nice that it connects directly to your scan tool, but you just cannot beat picos software.

I have an 8 channel hantek that is on par with this scope. The hantek is only $99usd on Amazon. Pico makes it look like a child's toy.

Hi Nick, just wanted to say I agree with your comment and that it is clear we subscribe to the same channels as keep seeing your name, regards from up North! And further thanks to mechanic mindset for great content, just wondered if this scope can be used with other scanners and/or laptop? Thanks

@vincentmeadows1905 Месяц назад

Have you ever done the in cylinder pressure diagnosis with the scope and does it have overlays built in?

@MechanicMindset Месяц назад

@@vincentmeadows1905 I’m not sure about the overlays. I can’t remember seeing that feature. I haven’t done in cylinder but pretty sure it will cope 👍

@katzenpapa 8 месяцев назад

Everytime I try to use single seq the run/stop button turns yellow and says 'wait', I am trying to do the very simple relative compress test and i can't see it get started with this scope. I have the topdon version, but it is EXACTLY the same hardware and software.

@jessemackenzie6516 Год назад

looks like the Micsig . Also this is the same as the Topdon? Love your channel

@MechanicMindset Год назад

So it does! I’m told Owon supported this. Not Hantek. I think yes, similar to TooDon. Thanks!

@katzenpapa 8 месяцев назад

How do you recall and review part of a waveform that has moved off the screen?

@DependableAutoTruck Год назад

forgot to ask with the think tool or the hantek read pico wave forms

Not compatible

@ThunderbirdRocket Год назад

That’s super helpful information ! Thanks !!

@MechanicMindset Год назад

Glad you’re enjoying the videos!

@weldingjunkie Год назад

Awesome video - so Believe it or not the software is not Hantek it is Owon software. That’s not to say that they don’t get them from the same place. I believe it’s 200v input as well trying to find my info on that. I know for sure the software is Owon I’ll get back to you on the voltage. The only thing I found Cumbersome saving and recalling captures. I wish they made a PC version like Autel.

@MechanicMindset Год назад

Ah cool! I know Owon: I got one of their hand held. 50V was the max I could get on the scale; is it 200V max input protection? (Like 2204A, 20v max read, 100V over voltage protection). Cheers Jay

@MechanicMindset Год назад

PS. Same as MicSig?

@MechanicMindset Год назад

Update: had it confirmed that it’s a MicSig scope 👍

@weldingjunkie Год назад

@@MechanicMindset Where did you find that information? On the updates I’ll send it to you. It says OWON, you know when you update the tool? That’s interesting I wonder if it’s the same vendor

50 PMTS is the recording length forgot to tell you

@prospexican 11 месяцев назад

great! are you using a lop top or a thinktool tablet to run the software?

@Jpilgrim30 Год назад

If 50 volts max I’d use an attenuator on an injector signal as I see them reach 60-70 volts on the inductive kick regularly.

@MechanicMindset Год назад

Can’t hurt and will only save time. Probably leave one channel set with an attenuator all the time on the cart

Hello~ I currently have a Thinkcar pros diagnostic device. Thinkcar Oscilloscope & Picoscope 2204a, 2205a I am wondering which model to buy. Oscilloscope is my first time learning, so please recommend which product to buy. Thilnkcar oscilloscope seems a little difficult for beginners to learn because there are few instructional videos and users. Please give me your opinion. This is Korea.

@rcchar 7 месяцев назад

So it you are buying your fist 4 channel Scope The Thinktool or a Automotive Pico? (I have the Kingbolen K10). Can you do a comparison between the two?

@MechanicMindset 7 месяцев назад

It depends on your budget really. Pico is better than this, but is more expensive. I’ve not seen Kingbolen scope; is it rebranded? edit: I see, it’s a launch based scan tool

@madnadn Год назад

Hi Darren, do you know if Hantek dso306 or hantek 6074be is similar to this one? How does this compare to the ditex carscope plus?

I'm curious, is that a version of H-Scope for android that they're using on the ThinkTool? I have a Hantek and Pico, and have only used them with their own PC based versions of the software. Never used the H-Scope...

@MechanicMindset Год назад

Hi, apparently Owon software not Hantek. HScope is separate for Android. I have HScope, just trying to figure it out for you before a video 👍
