It can actually be useful. I remember I’ve commented on one of your videos saying if you could do this review and now you’ve done it so thank you very much.
@@Automotive_Solutions Yeah I was looking at that. Doesn’t seem to be available yet. They said they will send me one. Should have live scope view too 🤞. Although it seems more power probe sized
Hi. Thank you for the great videos and content u make. I want to ask if the picoscope 2204a u using can work on trucks with 24V ? If not wish one i can get and be usefull
Hi, great question. I think it would be ok if you use an attenuator. You can get a 4:1 attenuator which will take it to 80V maximum. I have a 20:1 attenuator for a maximum of 400V, which is probably a bit over the top! 👍
@@MechanicMindset thank you so much for your reply. i find ur page days ago and i love ur content so much. i go take a look into the picoscope6 software and the probe there is x1 , x10 , x20 , x100 ... so there is no 4:1 i think you mean 40:1 ?
@@yassin9749 You can make your own customs probe 😎 Glad you are enjoying the channel! We are getting there; just about to hit 10k subscribers! Thanks 👍
@@MechanicMindset yes I have played around with it. Got the basic kit and use my Pico accessories with it. Once you get your head around the menu it's very handy. It was cheaper for me to buy it off of aes wave that to buy it from the UK.
why you can't read the CAN BUS from the Diagnostic socket?I have seen others video to,which they not read it from the socket, but straight from the wiring, but why?thanks.
Hi, I can, but the only network down there is Diagnostic CAN. I prefer not to front probe, and this spot it easy to get at. Other vehicles, all the networks can be accessed at OBD I’ll explain better in my next video 👍
Another fantastic video Matt amazing piece of kit handy for quick measurements on the go. It will never beat a Pico scope still the best scope in the industry Matt any chance of doing NVH testing using Pico scope.
It’s a cool little tool; you’re right, Pico is next level. I don’t actually have the NVH kit. I have been looking at some interesting tool. Go on the App Store on your phone and search NVH, you can actually use your phone to diagnose issues now! PS. Think you got the mixed up with Mechanic Matt, I’m Darren 😂 cheers!
I haven’t either. There is slightly better frequency, sampling rate and rise time. At low time scales, I doubt you would tell the difference on automotive applications. You might get a better image when sampling at a higher time base and then zooming in
@@MechanicMindset I have both now and the 2205a does better detail than the 2204a. I will make video on them both soon and post. Will let ya know when I do. The 25mhz over the ten almost seems to make it appear to have higher but rate than then 10mhz. Or it could be then laptop I am using. I tested with 2204a on a cheap pc and the 2205a on a higher end MacBook Pro. Just not sure id 2205a worth the extra 100.
@@Quickwrench75 Great! I look forward to seeing the difference. I also have another cheap laptop and the quality is also affected. It takes more time to capture
Looked to me like the images were freeze frame data. Good for initial viewing but assume it would be able to keep up showing live data. Still impressive for the size and price
Yes that’s right, it works the same as a ‘single trigger’ 7.55. The Pokit Pro which is bigger should have live view but it’s not available yet. This little thing is so convenient and quick to set up 👍
@@MechanicMindset yep deffo a market for this machine. I get asked to have quick look at cars when I'm out and about with my other job so carry one of those thinkdiag Bluetooth dongles in glove box of car. May well add this to the glove box as well.
@@the_retired_mechanic Same, I have had one of those ELM327 for about 10 years in the glovebox - great for engine lights. The Pokit Meter will join it! Haha. Wouldn't mind trying one of those Think Diag dongles - bi-directional right?
@@the_retired_mechanic Thanks for this. I've been on the lookout for a decent (and decently priced) diagnostic tool/software and hadn't heard of this. Looks brilliant. Going to do a bit of research into it now.
Order here. Pokit Pro also available for pre order. I should have one to share soon! shop.pokitmeter.com/mechanicmindset
Cool idea the T pins, needles. Thanx for that. I've been using the pokit pro and i'm very happy with it.
Great to hear!

Happy to meet your request! Have you got one? What do you think? 👍
@@MechanicMindset I haven’t got one as I wasn’t convinced but likely I will get one to carry it with me.
@@madnadn They are quite convenient, especially how quick you can set the scope up 👍
Nice! Technology is amazing today! Thank you for sharing.
I know, what next?! Cheers 👍
thank you for the video, more and more superb demonstration
Your welcome Stephane! I have a list of videos to create, I just need to find the time!
Impressive little bit of kit 👍👏👏
It’s really cool, I was impressed. Can’t wait to see the Pokit Pro!
Neat little gadget that. I've seen them advertise on Facebook but didn't realise how much it can do. Nice review 👍
Cool isn’t it! Quiet convenient and quick to set up. Cheers
@@MechanicMindset looking on their site I see the pro version has banana and BNC adapters available too.
@@Automotive_Solutions Yeah I was looking at that. Doesn’t seem to be available yet. They said they will send me one. Should have live scope view too 🤞. Although it seems more power probe sized

Have you seen them before? Cheers!
@@MechanicMindset no m8 I have not. Will buy one tho. I can never have too many dvom
@@CANDiagnostic 😂
Thanks for the information friend
You’re welcome!
Thanks, I’ve ordered one looks really good.
Awesome! It is a pretty cool gadget, I think you’ll be happy with it! 👍
it looks like a very handy device, maybe could buy one .

I like the pinch with your finger and thumb option to spread the waveform, its about time pico sent you summat tho.
It’s a cool little gadget and the app works well. Let’s see what the future holds! Cheers
Very handy. I just bought the u scope to backup the pico but this looks handy.

how much better would a pico 2205a perform over the 2204a. I haven't seen the 2205a in action

can we buy a fuse on any hardware store or that fuse a proprietary one?
Sorry, not sure. They seem to be proprietary. $15 for x5 and wire grip replacement set
Cool
Right! What next?!
Injectors and coils create inductive kickback voltage. I’m surprised that the device handles the injectors.
Yeah, nearly 56V in this example, close to the limit. good isn’t it 👍
I like it a lot.
But is in the "pricey" side... for the size.
Hmm hard decision..
It’s pretty cool. I suppose the cost comes down to the development involved in getting it all packed in there! 👍
