I agree. I have the Hantek leads and use them when I don't want to backprobe weatherpacked connections. I hesitated at the AES set when it was at $170 and now post pandemic at $270 its definitely out of my budget.
not just DIYers ... our HScope Telegram group has many members who work at this for a living (like you) but aren't made of money and look for sensible, affordable solutions
There is one more important reason to have this, I believe. For newer vehicles, when you change the battery just plug in 12 V in that middle lower hole marked DC and the ECM won't loose it's mind 😂 for the love of the old battery. Love your channel Dennis, the Telegram community and Martin's store as well. Stay warm up there 😂😂😂 and I hope that you'll be busy this winter with this channel MP
I burnt up a cable on my old Snapon modis because the grounds are bridged inside the scantool. Another shops had installed a new engine in a dodge Durango with a 5.2 and they connected the engine ground wire to the alternator B+ instead of connecting it to the ground stud located 3” away.
Agreed that this channel is awesome! I would say that it is a real niche though. You would have to think of the categories and sub-categories this channel filters down to . . . Automotive Someone with technical knowledge. Looking to improve their tooling. Willing to look past the equivalent of the snap-on truck to find those tools. Willing to spend time to find value for money. Willing to diy a tool to some extent. Etc etc. For a lot of people, it's a flex to have the entire pico and aeswave catalogue down to the wps500. I'd like to know where Ivan from pine hollows diagnostic gets his pressure sensor from for his pressure transducer. Lastly, what the he'll are they expecting you to use so many male to male terminal for, haha? Thanks as always for bringing these brilliant bang for buck options to us!
I agree.. This channel is a gem. Too many "mechanic pros' think they have to use the brand name stuff or they aren't legit as a company. I don't buy into this kind of disease of the mind. I'll probably get this BOB just because of those leads.. that's a steal
Hi Denis, nice video. I can think of some ideas with those cables. I can give it double utility: in the vehicle and on the workbench (electronic repair)
I think those cables are for a K Line bus to hook all the connections together then remove them one by one to diagnose which module is taking down the network...
Excuse me for my ignorance, how do you tell if 4 and 5 are bridged by just appearance? I never knew they are bridged. A big take away. Thank you, Dennis.
on some you can see the circuit trace connect 4 & 5 together and can measure also between 4 & 5 with ohmmeter and get 0Ω with the AUTOOL (and also on some other brands) when we measure 4 & 5 we get "OL" ... open loop

we'd need eyes all around our head:)
Love the channel...subbed from the first video I watched...been telling all my friends...maybe I need smarter friends...🤣
I got friends I wouldn't want to submit to an IQ test but they're still fun to hang out with:)
😂

lol...double-ended dildos have their uses
The break out cables can be used to pin a control unit so it can be programmed off the car.
but not in conjunction with the BOB, right Todd?
I have the same one. Those leads are really handy. Great Channel
they sure are
thanks for your comment, much appreciated:)
i have that BOB well worth the money, love your channel Dennis
thanks so much Robert:)
Good video Denis.. I still haven't used mine
Good value 👍

thanks!
yep, a steal...especially if can find discounted on Aliexpress
That is a great bargain with the included test leads!
thanks
Hi Denis, nice video. I can think of some ideas with those cables. I can give it double utility: in the vehicle and on the workbench (electronic repair)
they are handy David
and thanks for encouraging me to make this video:)
If nothing else-- those leads are good for checking pin fitment on connectors; super handy to have around.
great video i have the AES wave set but that is nice i to don't understand why you don't have 10 times the subscribers you have
yeah, beats me...lol
I think those cables are for a K Line bus to hook all the connections together then remove them one by one to diagnose which module is taking down the network...
sure...and many other uses

@@theGADGETSplaylistThank you for your insights. I learnt that just now. I ordered the one myself too because of your kind of recommendation.
@@bekomcar554 am sure you'll enjoy it
and greetings from Canada to South Korea:)
I looked this up and found it on amazon for $32. It looks the same as you have.
big difference between Amazon.com and Amazon.ca where it's $65 + tax + $7 shipping
@@theGADGETSplaylist WOW, I didn't think that there was that much difference. I guess the U.S. viewers will be able to save some money.
