This is a great source of info. I have a Vantage Pro and a Verus and I am baby in diapers compared to u. I'm learning with the Vantage Pro how to do relative compression with just plain battery voltage and with an amprobe. Turning the trigger on and off sometimes confuses me. But I am learning. I am overwhelmed at times. One thing I want to do is make the in cylinder pressure transducer system u have on your channel. Thank u! U have an amazing grasp of this stuff. U most have a rich background in this field.
+Bill Rimmer - There's a learning curve to this. And it's not for everyone. I don't think being smart is the most important attribute. Being stubborn is:)
might be an excellent tool, but i've got 2 starter scopes,if i go any deeper i'll invest in a pico -scope.but a man neesds to start with the basic and expand on that,great video again.thanks
I have been testing the OSC2002 and so far I like it ,have some bugs that are being worked out but definitely seems suitable for automotive diagnostics minus primary ignition. I feel like with a X100 probe you'd lose a lot of the finer details on the lower voltage end of the wavform like saturation oscillations
+ElectronMark Boggess - Primary ignition work is troublesome and overrated. You have to protect scope from 400v induction spike and as you point out, you then have no resolution for the lower voltage details. The solution is to avoid it. Bring a COP probe to the party. The secondary will mirror what going on with the primary and vice versa. A current clamp on the primary is OK but back probing the control is not worth it...in my opinion. Will you be making a video on the OSC2002?
@@theGADGETSplaylist after they fix the bugs I have pointed out I will post a one the fly video of me using it for testing.. so far I have shared it on my Instagram page in which I have lots of followers in both automotive diagnostics and electronics. I agree and the only time I have used primary ignition is if the COP is so insulated that I can not get a good trace. I work on mostly 2011 and newer vehicles and most now are 3 and 4 wire systems and all the switching is done within the coil and all you can see is the 5V trigger pulse to fire the coil. Ignition current ramping is becoming more common method in my opinion.
+Paul Iroha - the HANTEK HT-201 is a 20:1 attenuator that is easily found and inexpensive. It has its place where large induction spike voltages are expected. But it is too much attenuation to just bring these oscilloscopes in the 12v working range. PICO makes a 10:1 attenuator. You'll have a hard time to find it and you will pay dearly for it. That is why GADGETS#28 was developed. It is a 4:1 attenuator. Build one and your 5v scope will be a 20v scope:)
Thank you for video I've seen few of your videos and I never thought something like gas analyzer and other things can be made DIY. You got me curious enough to test. What would you recommend for newbie in oscilloscope field OSC482, HS402W or picoscope 2204? I seen in your last videos You started to use OSC482 is the HS402W not good enough? "to me the wireless option is awsome" Thanks in advance for any of your thoughts.
The easiest entry is OSC482 HS402 project is awesome in either USB or WiFi but requires effort (fun) to build All of the above powered by HScope will outperform the base PICO 2204 If you tackle some of the more advanced GADGETS on the channel, you may find it useful to look us up on the HScope TELEGRAM group:) Denis
Thanks for the video. Please on the software where you have 1x, 10x and 100x, can they be used to probe a 12v instead of getting an attenuator ? thanks
+Paul Iroha - no...those are 2 different things. An attenuator is hardware that curbs the input voltage to not go "overscale" and to protect the oscilloscope. Probe selections within the software are "multipliers" applied to the input voltage. They can even produce a scale in Kv as an extreme example with the input voltage still within its +/-5v range. Most budget oscilloscope come in that input range thus the reason for GADGETS#28 to make them friendly to automotive use without excessive attenuation.
+Mekenzi M - I'm not a big Power Probe fan. I don't own one. Maybe build one? Perhaps... I prefer a more simple approach. We should own 3 test lights. A low resistance LED in handle, a higher resistance incandescent light in handle, and a 4A DIY light bulb type.
yes, OSC482 could do this in this price range and with automotive in mind, I would look at the HS502 featured on this channel the ±16v input alone should convince and more...should be back in stock on Martin's store in next few days...
Hi Sir, i got a hantek 1008C, about the oscillating waves that appeared, i unplugged the laptop from the wall and i get the solution. Just like that. Thanks a lot for your videos, their great.
+antonio zanabria - true that the power supply coming into an oscilloscope is very important concerning noise. The 1008C is a great scope that allowed thousands of us entry into this field at a very low cost. It is noisy. And it is bad for needing re-calibration as it warms up. This LOTO OSC482, in the same price range is a cut above. I thank you for your kind comment!
Hi, thank you for taking the time and effort to make this video, it is very informative. I want to purchase this OSC482 and use it with the HScope but I am not sure if it supports android. The manufacturers website says the OSC482M has the android support but watching your video I see where you use the OSC482 with the HScope. Did you use it straight out of the box with the HScope or did you have to do some modification?
I understand your confusion about the "M" suffix. That ANDROID support is targeted at the chinese market. I recommend plain OSC482 and then to get HScope support through the Google Play Store.
So is this scope still the budget scope you would recommend? Im currently looking in to buying 1. The reason i got to this page was actually a hantek 1008c wich came up for sale unused for 25$ but someone managed to buy it before me. But now that i watched some of your videos im thinking i might be better of with this scope wich i think is cheaper when bought new as wel.
OSC482 is by far the best choice Bob. Sure, it doesn't have 8 channels but there's no comparison for performance. I advise to stay away from models with suffix like "M" or "F" ... these refer to an Android version targeted for Chinese bypass of Google Play Services. We want the "plain" OSC482... Can get HScope at Play Store (if desired) later. And the LOTO Windows based software is better than HANTEK's as well.
You had shown the android app. Did you buy the PC version or the PC + android OSC482M which is 20$ more. I wonder if that is only about the micro USB adapters for the phone or a different hardware ? I would not pay 90$ for the pc +android version cause for that price I get the Owon vds1022
OSC482M is targeted for countries denied access to Google Play Store (which is required for HScope to run) I would buy OSC482 (no suffix) and add ANDROID capability (if desired) with HScope licence
@@theGADGETSplaylist thanks a lot cause saved me a lot of money due to Loto fooling people on amazon as they claim not to know about hscope if that is working with the osc482.

if you were going to purchase a new scope and you wanted one to use with android tablet what would you buy. have a small automotive repair shop and would like to have at least 2 channel would prefer 4 channel. i have a uscope and a snapon vantage legend 2 channel scope
It would be this one...OSC482 ... buy the "plain Jane" ... no suffix like "M" ... then purchase HScope licence for it. It's a great combo! You'll want the HANTEK 20:1 attenuator and to build GADGETS#106 4x attenuator. This will give you a lot of scoping power and mobility for very little money...
It is pretty good! For about $65US hard to beat. Look for OSC482 without any "suffix" as those are for a version of Android support targeted at the chinese market. Then, use it with its Windows based software and/or add HScope support through Google Play Store later.
@@Metroid1890 they all have the capability but the OSC482L has the DE15 cable for logic analyzer as a pkg. Might be harder to find and more expensive. DE15 connectors can be found online and cables easily made up and will run on the plain Jane 482. If your budget allows, have a look at the OSCA02 or the OSC2002 (also featured on this channel)
this is the "plain" OSC482 no suffix letters. I recommend this. Works with LOTO Win10 software and ANDROID support if desired is obtained with HScope on Play Store. This is best way, IMO "M" and "F" relate to an ANDROID version for markets in countries where Google Play is banned.
+Mike Mullenix - Not all LOTO models are Android supported at this time. The OSC2002 is not supported (at this time). The OSC802 is supported but not with AUTOMOTIVE MODULE. This OSC482 is fully supported, is the lowest priced and if it's for automotive use through Android then look no further. Here's a list of models and features supported by HScope: hscope.martinloren.com/oscilloscopes.html
@@theGADGETSplaylist thank you I just purchased the loto osca02 on Amazon. However, it's a pc usb oscilloscope and It didn't mention android. The osc seems to have the best software of the lot. Not very many reviews on them though.
@@mikemullenix6956 - I agree that LOTO has the best Windows software among budget oscilloscopes. And the hardware, from noise and calibration perspective is superior as well. LOTO is fairly new to the market but it's a SainSmart spin off and those guys know how to build oscilloscopes.

no external trigger ... no trying to correlate 3 things at one time like crank, cam and also injector... but...you can choose 2...you can do cam vs crank (which is the usual way to do this and compare with a known good waveform) or you can do crank vs injector ... or crank vs #1 ignition ...

@@theGADGETSplaylist I'm deciding between the HT6022 and the OSC428. With this video I'm thinking to buy the OCS428 one. Which one would you recommend for buying?
@@SERAFINARODRIGUES I would go with LOTO OSC482. I recommend you look for plain one (no suffix like "M" or "F") This will get you the best price and then you can add HScope support (if you like) from the Google Play Store
Can this be used to set gains on an amplifier and to detect distortion from a Head unit etc ? Usually for an amplifier used for subwoofers a 40hz test tone is generated and the oscilloscope is used to hook to speaker outputs. Starting with gain on lowest level slowly turning up watching the oscope for distortion etc. Thanks
+Jeremy Strain - two different worlds...the automotive use of oscilloscopes where I have at the very least 1 foot firmly planted...and the electronics/audio world where I have at best 1 toe in:) Have you checked GADGETS#56 where I feature the OSC2002. It may be a better option for your line of work. A bit more pricey. Not HScope supported (at present time) but the LOTO Windows software is pretty good and the specs of that oscilloscope are more targeted to audiophiles. However, the the low frequency of the woofers you quote could be handled by OSC482.

+Ron Sneyd jr - some time after the publishing of this video, LOTO added all those OSC482x suffixes. Most of these relate to accessory bundles, but the "M" and the "F" include a "built in" version of ANDROID.

@@ronsneydjr3509 - You will have the option of using the built in ANDROID support of OSC482F and/or purchasing the HScope APP from the Google Play Store. No issue:-)
@@ronsneydjr3509 - just use it out of the box as is when you get it. See what you think of the built in ANDROID. You can then make a decision if you want the HScope APP and the AUTOMOTIVE MODULE (which I recommend) later. These LOTO products are quite nice. A lot of oscilloscope for the money! Also, you may want to order the HANTEK HT-201 attenuator (20:1)...easy to find online and inexpensive...very useful for these +/-5v input oscilloscopes. Have fun!
Recent and well done review. I question their €100 ... perhaps with accessories...because this oscilloscope can be had for $60 and tough to beat when compared to other offerings in the same price range. AND, it is supported by HScope which squeezes the performance out of it. Thanks for sharing, Jos!
Oh No. You're costing me money again :-) Did you mention - Can it trigger on one of the channels? Thanks for the review. I went and looked on Amazon. It says it will trigger on Channel A. I wonder if that means ONLY channel A. We poor Canadians are going to have to pay over $100 for it too. So annoying. Thanks again
+Dave Sage - I meant to. Fell through the cracks. This was a demanding video to produce. I'll likely get another opportunity to mention it in later videos. It will like become my GO-TO scope... How did you make out at the Model Engine gathering in Detroit?
It went vary well. Lots of very interesting stuff there as usual. The engine is running better than ever since it has been breaking in and has been tuned up. I'll get you some waveforms of the CDI waste spark soon. Thanks
+Dave Sage - another reason behind the CH A only triggering is that the DB15 connector can also provide external hardware trigger...and that goes through CH B

if you were going to purchase a new scope and you wanted one to use with android tablet what would you buy. have a small automotive repair shop and would like to have at least 2 channel would prefer 4 channel. i have a uscope and a snapon vantage legend 2 channel scope
It would be this one...OSC482 ... buy the "plain Jane" ... no suffix like "M" ... then purchase HScope licence for it. It's a great combo!
You'll want the HANTEK 20:1 attenuator and to build GADGETS#106 4x attenuator.
This will give you a lot of scoping power and mobility for very little money...
I really want to buy my first oscilloscope to start tinkering at my house, this one looks pretty good
It is pretty good! For about $65US hard to beat.
Look for OSC482 without any "suffix" as those are for a version of Android support targeted at the chinese market.
Then, use it with its Windows based software and/or add HScope support through Google Play Store later.
@@theGADGETSplaylist does the 482 without suffix come with logic analyzer functions?
@@Metroid1890 they all have the capability but the OSC482L has the DE15 cable for logic analyzer as a pkg. Might be harder to find and more expensive. DE15 connectors can be found online and cables easily made up and will run on the plain Jane 482.
If your budget allows, have a look at the OSCA02 or the OSC2002 (also featured on this channel)
@@theGADGETSplaylist yeah, found myself a 482L at a good price, let's see what's this device made of 👌
@@Metroid1890 cool!
You'll not be disappointed...
nice scope,but for the can,you cannot see it better live?
I showed both---LIVE---and---RECORDED so that we can see the two methods. I find LIVE mode flashes across screen too quickly.
Thanks
WHich OSC482 model is that one I'm finding various models?
What does the letter behind the model mean?
this is the "plain" OSC482 no suffix letters. I recommend this. Works with LOTO Win10 software and ANDROID support if desired is obtained with HScope on Play Store. This is best way, IMO
"M" and "F" relate to an ANDROID version for markets in countries where Google Play is banned.
Great video! Are all loto scopes compatible and connect with Samsung's galaxy 7s ?
+Mike Mullenix - Not all LOTO models are Android supported at this time.
The OSC2002 is not supported (at this time).
The OSC802 is supported but not with AUTOMOTIVE MODULE.
This OSC482 is fully supported, is the lowest priced and if it's for automotive use through Android then look no further.
Here's a list of models and features supported by HScope:

@@theGADGETSplaylist thank you I just purchased the loto osca02 on Amazon. However, it's a pc usb oscilloscope and It didn't mention android. The osc seems to have the best software of the lot. Not very many reviews on them though.
@@mikemullenix6956 - I agree that LOTO has the best Windows software among budget oscilloscopes. And the hardware, from noise and calibration perspective is superior as well.
LOTO is fairly new to the market but it's a SainSmart spin off and those guys know how to build oscilloscopes.
Very big thanks !!!
+Павел Калинин - I see you make videos also and show no fear of working on computer control modules:-)
I wish Google Autotranslate (Russian - English) was better...
Greetings, would you work in the automotive area? To measure the pulse in the coils and injectors, they produce spikes of approximately 130 volts
I have found injector spikes to be
ignition coils spike >300v which is why I designed a 60:1 attenuator for these ±5v oscilloscopes
Well done!
Hi sir is an external trigger necessary when capturing cam an crack signals ...like triggering off injector one to see exactly where the two (cam and crank) must be in order to fire the injector or ignition ?
Im really impress by this scope for automotive use...but not sure if i need the external trigger...the data logger is pretty usefull...thanks for the vid an imformation it is priceless...tbanks again
I notice the Owon VDS1022I has an external trigger an it can work with the H scooe module....but wont have the data logger capability....plz reply if u can...thanks
no external trigger ... no trying to correlate 3 things at one time like crank, cam and also injector...
but...you can choose 2...you can do cam vs crank (which is the usual way to do this and compare with a known good waveform)
or you can do crank vs injector ... or crank vs #1 ignition ...
Thanks again sir....appreciate it...
Darn! Wish you had done this before I ordered the HT 6022BE! Oh well, perhaps I will start a scope collection! :)
+Rod Johnston - This video was in the works when you told me you had ordered the HT6022 and were asking about tablets...LOL
Not to worry. You will get hours of enjoyment out of the HT6022. It will handle your needs as a DIY auto mechanic.
It's all good! Now I have a good reason to buy another toy!! :)
@@rodjohnston7989 - Had you said that were "thinking" of buying HT6022, then I would had mentioned the upcoming OSC482 review and you could have decided between the two.
I suspect there will be other units featured in the future. It's a rapidly changing field.
And thanks for watching:)
@@theGADGETSplaylist I'm deciding between the HT6022 and the OSC428. With this video I'm thinking to buy the OCS428 one. Which one would you recommend for buying?
@@SERAFINARODRIGUES I would go with LOTO OSC482. I recommend you look for plain one (no suffix like "M" or "F")
This will get you the best price and then you can add HScope support (if you like) from the Google Play Store
Can this be used to set gains on an amplifier and to detect distortion from a Head unit etc ? Usually for an amplifier used for subwoofers a 40hz test tone is generated and the oscilloscope is used to hook to speaker outputs. Starting with gain on lowest level slowly turning up watching the oscope for distortion etc. Thanks
+Jeremy Strain - two different worlds...the automotive use of oscilloscopes where I have at the very least 1 foot firmly planted...and the electronics/audio world where I have at best 1 toe in:)
Have you checked GADGETS#56 where I feature the OSC2002. It may be a better option for your line of work. A bit more pricey. Not HScope supported (at present time) but the LOTO Windows software is pretty good and the specs of that oscilloscope are more targeted to audiophiles.
However, the the low frequency of the woofers you quote could be handled by OSC482.
@@theGADGETSplaylist Thank you for all of your videos and knowledge. This is all very new to me.
@@CabinetmanJeremy - thank you for the comment:)
@@CabinetmanJeremy - this guys knows what he's doing...and I understand it now...and yes, the OSC482 would do just fine for this!

Where to get Android & Windows Software. The old link says it has been deleted.
right here Joe:
www.lotoins.com/support.html
that link is for Windows only...unless you have a "M" or "F" model that has "an Android version"
most of the time Android support is from HScope found on Google Play Store
logical Canuck love your channel. i just ordered the loto osc482f Android that comes with signal generator and the works. will it work right out the box with Hscope or do i need to download all the programming first ?? thank you and keep up the great content.
+Ron Sneyd jr - some time after the publishing of this video, LOTO added all those OSC482x suffixes. Most of these relate to accessory bundles, but the "M" and the "F" include a "built in" version of ANDROID.
I think you'll be OK and be able to install HScope but give me a couple days to confirm this with Martin Loren, the developer.
I'll get back to you.
Am pleased you like the videos, Ron:-)
@@theGADGETSplaylist ok great. thanks
@@ronsneydjr3509 - You will have the option of using the built in ANDROID support of OSC482F and/or purchasing the HScope APP from the Google Play Store.
No issue:-)
@@theGADGETSplaylist that is great news, thank you so much for checking that out for me.
@@ronsneydjr3509 - just use it out of the box as is when you get it. See what you think of the built in ANDROID.
You can then make a decision if you want the HScope APP and the AUTOMOTIVE MODULE (which I recommend) later.
These LOTO products are quite nice. A lot of oscilloscope for the money!
Also, you may want to order the HANTEK HT-201 attenuator (20:1)...easy to find online and inexpensive...very useful for these +/-5v input oscilloscopes.
Have fun!
Read an extensive review and test on the OSC482X:
chinese-electronics-products-tested.blogspot.com/p/osc482x-usb-oscilloscope-tested.html
Recent and well done review.
I question their €100 ... perhaps with accessories...because this oscilloscope can be had for $60 and tough to beat when compared to other offerings in the same price range.
AND, it is supported by HScope which squeezes the performance out of it.
Thanks for sharing, Jos!
Oh No. You're costing me money again :-)
Did you mention - Can it trigger on one of the channels?
Thanks for the review.
I went and looked on Amazon. It says it will trigger on Channel A. I wonder if that means ONLY channel A.
We poor Canadians are going to have to pay over $100 for it too. So annoying.
Thanks again
+Dave Sage - I meant to. Fell through the cracks. This was a demanding video to produce. I'll likely get another opportunity to mention it in later videos. It will like become my GO-TO scope...
How did you make out at the Model Engine gathering in Detroit?
It went vary well. Lots of very interesting stuff there as usual.
The engine is running better than ever since it has been breaking in and has been tuned up.
I'll get you some waveforms of the CDI waste spark soon.
Thanks
+Dave Sage - another reason behind the CH A only triggering is that the DB15 connector can also provide external hardware trigger...and that goes through CH B
+Dave Sage - I checked further and the CH A only trigger applies to the Windows software. HScope supports triggering on both channels.
Interesting. Thanks
Also, do u have an email that u can breached at? Thank u again
